FUTURE REFERENCE
In terms of future reference, there will be more concepts for game ideas (possibly, maybe), characters / villains
For example
THE CONCEPT MAKER
The Concept Maker is a minion of Micky Mick the clown, and a set alone villain himself.
How he works - As you can clearly see he has two sides to him
The much lighter side of him (the green, orange and white) is the more friendly side, very child like, pure innocent, sweet and kind. with good contrast to his other side (the grey, black an red) which is completely evil and wants to cause issues.
in all honesty both sides of his personality are evil, no matter if the lighter side is way nicer and sweet and kind it is still evil and still has bad intentions, its just that side is more likely to make friends with its victims and have conversations with them and give hints and help out (participate basically) than be cruel and mean, than the other side the darker side.
Who is / what he does -
The Concept Maker is what its name suggests, he creates concepts and ideas that change reality, can go from extreme to mild or small but each concept has its own catch with reality, as stated before when the lighter side changes reality, he treats it more like a game a nice friendly game, not caring about the outcome if you win, die or he loses; just loves the thrill of helping you out and or watching you figure out what issues and parts of reality he has changed. (basically not caring of the outcome but just enjoying the thrill and excitement) however as stated before this doesn't make him any good as a person as he still wants to cause trouble and ruin peoples lives, he is just way nicer and more nicer in terms of moments that he has changed and twisted.
However with the other side to contrast to the light, this is where things get serious, as this side really wants to ruin reality and your life, with everything he has got, he won't start conversations, he will insult you and he will not give hints; he will torture mentally and make your life harder, when trying to fix the issues he has caused. However with the light not giving a dam of the outcome just wants to have fun, kinda make friends but still wanting to cause trouble, this one cares really deeply of the outcome and if it doesn't go to his liking, he will stop at nothing to try and make it right and make it more worse than what it was previously.
How they change reality -
For example, if any of them say "what if world war one and two never happened" there is your concepts and then it comes true, however as stated before there is always a catch, it does not matter what or who you are dealing with there is always a catch with any of them, so for example they said that what if it never happened but they never stated that it "will never ever happen" which means in terms of future tense it will happen again but have a worse outcome to it.

RESEARCH
This is to give me a hint on how I should design the eggs around my queen
Now asking for feedback, i agreed to having the legs really exaggerated to show how much of a beast that it is, how huge and the threat is has towards the player.
With the wings, i thought to have them different to the small bugs wings, as a boss concept when the player tries to attack the queen it uses the wins to cover itself to deflect and dodge attacks, which needs the player to destroy the wings first so they become useless to use.

UPDATE QUEEN
Here I am trying to make the queen like any other queen in the insect kingdom, only have one job, to make it big and heavy.
Throughout the last few weeks I will be trying to refine it and make it the legs work, maybe change bits but so far i am okay with how it has turned out.

WEBSITE
Trying to make my backgrounds on my website more interesting, i tried using a blood splatter however when I did it, it looked revolting, as my slides of my portfolio don't really contrast really well along with the blood splatter, however it looked better being a dark red.

CASE COVER PROCESS 2
With making the text smaller and being pretty proud of what i designed and what my plan was with this, with help from feedback and my own patients I had fun making this and understanding how these game cases work and the composition of them.
To contrast to what I did, normally game cases / (covers) are made when the game has already been made or at a later pint, as there is so many concepts and drawings to be used for the game yet only one can be used, however in my case because I am making a game concept from scratch with the art style, story and how the game should be played I am able to make the game case and cover for it in a matter of seconds or minutes which is a really cool point to make. but with the whole making the case for the last minute makes a huge difference with the gameplay and the whole concept of the game, as you only have so much time and not a enough time so the game may be ruined for the look of the case if it does not look as interesting as you intend it to be, which is why doing he game case / cover first is a better option especially when you doing things by scratch as you are able to use what you've created and designed, design something new along with it to make it interesting and eye catching and yet have mystery and spice to it and a new feel to it, which is really cool in my opinion.

WHAT I'VE LEARNED TODAY
What I learned today is normally you use these line to make sure you don't put art work on that and when you make posters you keep them on so you cut them out, so it looks professional, but with a book they don't have them on or if they do they again cut them out on a big sheet of paper but its mostly there to make sure you don't put work on there and keep everything in a box and neatly placed.

RESEARCH EXTENSION (-POSTER + GAME CASE-)
With tis research i will be doubling my exploration with the posters, while also looking at game cases to see how to compose (composition) and how much detail etc should be in it and what needs to be on it to get an understanding on it.

POSTER PROCESS
Here I will be adding all the process i have done so far, while also designing the logo for my game with the idea of keeping the bugs a secret and keeping the title simple and small with a small shed design to go with it, to compliment the "the shed" (title)
Now I am going to design the logo / title for the game receiving feedback to improve if needed
With some feedback, I will have the people in the middle coming across the bug on the side and the town and cave connected with a tunnel to indicate that the cave is part of the town and that they took over from below.
This is to compare which looks better and after a lot of thought, i've decided to go with the black as the black makes it look better looking then white and plus it adds a little bit more to it then the white, making it look like it popping out at the screen and giving it a 3D dimension look.
adding a tunnel to connect to the art I did to make them feel connected for concept and gameplay wise

QUEEN / BOSS DESIGN
This research i will do again to look at examples to see how i can make the boss battle concept into a poster, to make it work and to see if I have enough time, as having the boss poster on its own will take awhile and I need time to do it, so If I design it I will then have to put it in a A2 sheet to act as a poster
process: (again this isn't a full consideration, I need to know if I have enough time)
I will be designing the queen first, then the level design
QUEEN
To be smart about i borrowed, as i did with the bugs on the roof in my street level concept design; used a bug on its legs and drew my bug over that, which is what i am going to do with the queen.

Understanding how boss battles normally work to contrast to my process
How bosses in games normally work?
They have been around for a long time since game design has been a thing and they always act as an obstacles for the player that gets in their way to proceed further, but they also can change the plyers views on how tot play make them learn from mistakes and even add more to the story.
To make them more interesting there needs to be cool music in the background to fit the vibe, weirdness and excitement of killing defeating and getting wacked by the boss and a boss has to have lives that either stay the same decrease or increase by each time you lower its health.
How does my one work to contrast to what I learned
How my boss battle works, is that the old lady goes into the cave to try and see what's causing the weird appearance in bugs 9the cause) while hoping to save those trapped if she can but stumbles into the queens den and starts to fight it off, a massive huge bug in the heart of all the dead and disappearances.
The bosses first stage, the boss will try and crush the old lady with its simple leg movements, as it swipes and tries to crush you,
The second part of the stage is that it calls for its buddies to try and attack you
The player (old lady) must either dodge the legs or dodge or attack the in coming bugs, the player must shoot until the 3 health is done, repeating the same steps, as the queen will hide as its bugs come and attack and it comes after they are gone, comes back for more
After removing the queens 3 health it gains 5 health (two extra lives)
and it repeats but this time you every time the queen crushes the ground, rocks will fall and try to hit you on the head dodge them, as the queen now protects itself with its own wing, destroy the wings and make them more venerable, then repeat it same you did before just with the added rock dodging and fast pacing of the bugs movements.
Same goes with when the queen gains 10 health (extra 5)
Now one more added stage is added
Dodge, jump or get wacked by the queens legs
Dodge rocks while shooting at the queen
dodge flying bug attacks as they try and catch you and shoot them to make it easier while dodging the ones trying to attack you from the ground
shoot her, as each steps repeat until you defeat her

BOSS BATTLE CONCEPT RESEARCH
This is so I know where the bug should be and where the player should be and how big the den should be as well as the queen.
So I will be using new super mario bros final battle as an example, in confine are no where to go but with the giant queen in the background, I will also look into paper mario sticker star bosses in terms of positioning in case I change my mind and instead of having the boss in the background I will have the boss in the foreground with the player.
youtube
This process will be halted until I know that I have enough time to do set boss concept, for now i need to focus on the important stuff first and if I have time save this to last.

STICKER PROCESS
here I will be taking my designs and turning them into stickers, or making sticker designs like a brand cover sticker, with the character or something and the title etc etc
To start of I have the title sticker
and now i will be turning some bugs, characters into stickers.
pixel bug one and two and three
one
bug two
bug three part one and two
part one
part two
This is to expand my merch side of the game, to give people cool stickers if anyone likes sticker collecting and to decorating places in their room etc or even a nerd of these things.
