+# Overwiew
+
+This is the game design document (commonly referred to as GDD) for 'Spinner'.
+You can view the design board [here](https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVJrLKFaM=/)
+and play the game [here](https://pashabibko.itch.io/).
+
+# **The Mobius Line**
+
+Your job is to survive as long as possible and score the most ammount of points as you are able.
+Avoid getting sucked into the middle of the screen or float away from the bounds of the screen whilst
+doging the obstacles and enemies.

+
+### **1.1 Main Genres**
+
+The main genre for the game is 'survival'.
+This is implemented by making the game get harder and harder as the game progresses whilst the player tries to get a higher and higher score.
+Players will encounter different enemies that hitting them will cause them to die, they will start of as small objects but progress to a bigger objects
+that can fire projectiles and fire beams.
+
+### **1.2 Target audiences**
+
+The main target audiance of "Spinner" will be teenage boys as they spend lots of time on their phones and
+like to play games that are skill based and require testing of fast reaction times.
+Although the game is aimed at teenage boys it will be designed to be played by anyone by keeping the game
+as simple as possible
+
+##### **Age rating**
+
+The game will be suitable for all ages although it is recommneded for ages 6 and above.
+this is because the game features a lot of fast reaction based gameplay and can be slightly rage inducing
+due to the survival element that can cause a single mistake to ruin an entire 10+ minute run.
+
+### **1.3 Unique selling points**
+
+##### **- Infinite replayability**
+All of the levels within the game will be randomly generated as the player progresses with the aims to create
+new experiences every time so the player can get the most out of it as possible.
+
+##### **- Easy to pick up and put down**
+Upon loading up the game the player will instantly have a play button in the middle of their screen so they can
+start the game as quickly as possible without any downtime. The levels are also short and snappy so players will
+not have to worry about having to commit large ammounts of time per playing session.
+
+### **1.4 Visual and Audio style**
+
+The general theme of the game will be to keep designs simplistic, which will also apply to the art and audio design.
+Visually the game will be easy to look at with minimalistic colour schemed vector art aiming to use as simple shapes as possible.
+As enemies get more and more powerful with different attacks they will gain more verticies as part of their shapes,
+such as transitiong from a square to a hexagon.
+Hopefully this will make the player understand that a triangle is less dangerous than a octagon.
+
+To mirror the visual style the audio will also be kept simple with small sound effects on player death and close collision with objects.
+This will be accompined by a simple basic music background to not overwhelm the player/ 
+
+### **1.5 Platforms, Technology and Scope**
+
+The game will primarily be made for mobile IOS and Android devices with touching the screen to be the only way for the player to interact.
+It will also be able to played on a PC with using the mouse as the input device.
+Unity will be the game engine that I will use to develop the game in.
+I plan to create the final product within a couple of weeks and the first playable version to be in the first few days.
+One of the aims of the game is that it will constantly provide new challenges for the player so players can play as much as they want.
+
+### **3.1 Core loop**
+
+The main loop of the game will be to:
+1. Survive through as many levels as possible
+2. Buy upgrades if they can
+3. Repeat
+
+The loop of levels will be to:
+1. Introduce a new enemy
+2. Remind players of a previous enemy
+3. Combine them together to create a new challenge
+4. Repeat
