Researching into an ideal theme

For our new project we have been handed the task to individually concept together an iOS platform based app game. We have also been asked to create a design document with everything inside it from concept art to the fundamental mechanics of how to play the game. This is how our brief began 'As an individual, you will research, conceptualize and design a game/interactive 'App' for an Apple Platform. The subject focus of this project is to create innovative and original ideas by exploring gameplay, interactivity and interface whilst working within the constraints imposed by the platforms' limitations.'.


So for my app game I am deciding to look into a western styled theme game. After having a chat with one of the teachers called Chris I have decided to look more into a western styled, point and click pixel game. I really like the idea of having a point and click game but a spice of old western aesthetics. For my initial research I am going to look at point and click games such as Monkey Island, Maniac Mansion and other various titles from LucasArts entertainment and the visual aspects of Minecraft.
