Rush Hour Anarchy ™

Game Overview

Rush Hour Anarchy is a modern-day action game depicting a humorous exaggeration of the absurdity that London’s hustle and bustle pushes its working community to. Playing as an unknowing resident, the player must counter waves of businessmen and women with seemingly superhuman strength who, whilst making their way to and from work in a fit of blinding rage, bulldoze through the player’s home and eventually force the player to venture to save the entire city.

Fight off enough commuters to make your way to ‘The Splinter’ and defeat The Boss to end the rampage!

Key Features

  • Play with your Mii – After clearing enough levels, unlock the feature to play as a Mii that you’ve created on your system and utilize the weapons that the in-game characters use.
  • Enemies – encounter an array of different types of commuters, some with special abilities and weapons whilst ‘boss’ battles take place at pinnacle moments of the game.
  • Character Levelling – gain experience from defeating the commuters and use it to level up your character.
  • Gear – find weapons and gadgets in your home to aid you in battle and even pick up drops from the commuters that you have defeated.
  • Environments – the game is set in London and the levels occur in houses and so as you complete each one, the type changes. For instance, in a wealthy house, special paths like a vault and back garden would be available, holding special items and battles exclusive to that area.
  • Appealing Protagonists – the characters that the consumers play as have interesting skill sets specific to them, enhancing the enjoyable experience.

The target audience is aged 12 – 15 and most likely to be an achiever type of gamer.

This game would be rated PEGI 12 and have a violence content descriptor. It would run on the Nintendo 3DS as well as the 2DS and all other most recent renditions.

Unique Selling Point

The utilisation of the well-known nature of London and its often chaotic transport system helps to give the game a unique plot line, turning something that we all despise into an action-packed, enjoyable game. Putting a twist on something of this kind will help to attract attention to the game and what it’s about before ultimately intriguing the audience enough to have them buy and play it.

Design Goal

With this game, I hope to create a determination driven experience in a sense that players are eager to progress throughout the game due to its immersive nature, challenging endeavours and charming design. I ultimately want to create a game that my audience can fall in love with in all areas.

License

I will require a license for the use of Nintendo’s Mii product as playing as your Mii will be a feature in the game.
