Task 1: Proposal Development
INSTRUCTIONS
Week 1
We are asked to form a group of 4 according to our specialization, later on,
we are to discuss our topic with our assigned lecturer to get an approval.
Week 2
We continue discussing our project and we also started doing our presentation
for proposal.
Ideation
My group and I agreed that we will be doing board game for this project. As
for the theme of the board game, we came out with 2 different ideas. The first
idea is to do a mystery board game where we need to find who killed the
players. This idea is also related to squid game where we need to play some
mini games to win clues. As for the second idea is to do a valentine board
game where the game is basically like a monopoly game with some couple twist
in it. We bring out this two idea to Ms.V, our assigned lecturer to discussed
further with her. She said both of our ideas are interesting but we need to
think further like how our booth would look like, what will people see at our
booth. After discussing deeper into the topics, we decided to take the first
idea, which is the mystery board game.
Visual References
After finish discussing the topic, we made a group board on
Pinterest to put in what do we want this mystery board game looks like,
here are what we found on Pinterest.

This is our visual references for the outer box, the game, and the cards. After doing this, we made a rough sketch for how the board will look like.
Sketch
Here are our first rough sketch that we made during tutorial class :

M stands for mini games, where players need to play to win a clue, N stand for
night time, where suspect can kill one of the players, D is discussion, where
everyone can discuss to know who is the suspect, J is jail, where the person
can't move for one round, C is clue where the person gets a clue from the
inspector. QnA is question and answer where a player could ask question to
another player. In the middle of the board, there will be title and mini games
card.
Proposal Presentation
For the proposal presentation, we divided parts for each person to do certain
topics. In this presentation, I will make the project objectives. Before going
into the slides, we first made a google docs to put in information. Here is
the google docs :
This is the finished slides:
After getting feedback from Ms.Vi, we changed our problem statement and
resubmit.
SUBMISSION
Then, we move the information to the slides. Here is our finished slides
:
FEEDBACK
Week 1 :
Ms Vi said that both of our group ideas are interesting, we should discuss
further of which topic should we use.
Week 2 :
Ms Vi suggests us to play the prototype of the game before actually designing
it to know where to improve in the game system.
Week 3 :
Need to work on the problem statement again, and think about the board, are
they enough or not.
REFLECTION
Creating this proposal presentation has been an exciting and challenging experience. It’s fascinating to "invent" something from scratch, and my group chose to design a board game. The process wasn’t easy, we had to carefully decide what would work best for our team, what concept was the most feasible, and what would capture people's interest the most.Throughout this task, communication proved to be the most crucial factor. Constant discussions and collaboration helped us refine our ideas and strengthen our project. Despite the challenges, I genuinely enjoyed the entire process.
