This is the questionnaire that my partner has done.

CONCLUSION 

Throughout our research we have noticed several minor bumps in our plan for a game. We need to improve our results by offering the questionnaire to females as much as men. We found the price for our game which is £20 - £30. This price seems very ethical and what we expected. Our game was based around Minecraft for the unlimited map size and also Grand Theft Auto V because of all of the missions/activity's that are offered. We wanted this result because of the free roam side of our game. We were primarily focusing on the story of the game because that is what the research shows and it's what draws an audience. Secondly the game's graphics is what half of the people we asked wanted.We understood why people wanted the aesthetics to show in  a game. We wanted to know how long people played games for to find out how long our campaign should be. We want the campaign to last 2 days worth of gameplay. Side missions would take one day, Also ongoing challenges like buying a business and getting income to never run out of money. We are selling our game online and in game shops for the most profit. Our game will be spread across the following platforms; Xbox, Playstation and PC. Our name was picked due to the majority who voted it best.

The Lone Assassin

SUMMARY
in this research i found out that there is a lot more to action games than i thought, all i thought about was how the game was going to look and the game play but i never really thought of things like the characters health and how many lives they get, i also didn't think about what the characters abilities would be and how the levels are going to be setted up. For the Open world section i found out that open world games are game designed as a non-linear meaning that is presents players with challenges that can be done in many ways, non-linear game play give players more freedom to go around the place the game is based on.

Introduction

We are going to choose an area of the games industry that we are interested in. We will start by identifying a new games product. We will come up with an idea for a new game idea then we will conduct research.  We will ensure care is taken while we conduct research. We will try as hard and as dedicated as e possibly can to find our gap in the market.
