Week One - Ideas for Project

Ideas for Project


Idea 1 - Game

My first idea is to create a game, perhaps a first person shooter
- Zombie game (AI characters chase after the main character)
- War game (AI soldiers shoot at the player character)
- Racing game (Driving game where the player races against the AI)

How would I go about this project? I would first decide what type of game I will be making (shooter or racer), from there I would have to consider which software I would use to make the game (Unreal Engine 4, Unity). Then would be the design of the game, working on the layout, how I want it to do and what I want it to achieve.


Idea 2 - Website

My second idea is to create a website for a business
- I will need to find a company first who wishes to take there company online
- Would the website requirements include just advertisement or selling products
- How much will it cost? hosting and hardware

How would I go about this project? First I would have to find a company who requires a website building for them, Once I find that company we can then discuss the finance and see how much we can spend on getting the website live (I will be building the website for free). Then we will need to consider the design of the website and the functionality, will it be used for users to go online and buy items (e-commerce) or will it be used for contact information and product information.

Idea 3 -  Network

My third idea is to create a network for a business
- Again like the website, I will need to find a company who desires a entire network setup
- Costings, this would be a pricey project - putting into account hardware and software requirements
Computers, Printers, Switches, Leads, Operating System, Software, Server.

How would I go about this project? This would be a much larger projector and much more financially involved so we would need to find a company with a willingness to spend money. Once I find the company, we will need to look into the layout and how much equipment we will need to buy. This will involved comparing pricing and specs of machine which would benefit the business, working to a budget and finally implementing the system, hardware setup, software install and configuration.
