Grid Runners
- 1. Augmented Reality Mobile Game By Team Dagger Alex OâDell Stephen Andruszkiewicz Ryan Horbal Raleigh Love Steven-Felix Cho Rafael Luciano
- 2. Storyline The year is 2023 and everyoneâs personal information and DNA is known by the government and uses it freely as they wish. No one can hide from the Grid. The crime rates have dropped to nearly 0% but is it worth the price of personal privacy? In the future, people have found a way to travel back in time to try to destroy the Grid, these people are called Grid Runners. Grid Runners know vital information that the people of our current time do not. The information they have may be detrimental to the Gridâs wishes or itâs plans for a supposed utopian future.. The Immigration Special Investigation Unit or (ISIU) has full authority to capture any Grid Runner that has been detected by the Grid as an anomaly. You never know who will show up at this time⊠maybe even you!
- 3. Faction Backstory Grid Runners(Pluralities) Grid Runners are the embodiment of a revolution built on the backs of the people. Grid Runners are sent back in time to stop the growth of the Grid and hinder the capabilities of the ISIU in capturing their fellow Grid Runners. When Grid Runners travel back in time, they have added knowledge of that time period they are going back into. With the added knowledge, they can know when big events happen or where specific people will be at a given time. They can use this information to get a jump on the ISIU Detectives. As a Grid Runner you are tasked with alluding the Detectives, sabotaging the Grid, and gathering information.
- 4. Faction Backstory Cont. Immigration Special Investigation Unit (ISIU) Detectives ISIU is a special branch of immigration tasked with finding Grid Runners and detaining them. Their job is important to the Grid and they must go to incredible lengths to hide the origins of their prey. They are given the most modern weapons and technology that the government can attain for the sole purpose of defending the Grid and their modern way of life. If the origin of the Grid Runners is leaked to the public chaos can, and will, be the herald of destruction for modern society. For the safety of the Grid and the public, the ISIU must keep all their actions confidential and away from the eyes of the people.
- 5. Grid Runners Grid Runners, are selected at random at the start of each game or each game day. When a Runner is caught they will be removed from a game for a set amount of time depending on their level. Detectives Detectives are given a specific target to hunt once per day to receive an experience boost or special loot item. Detectives are also capable of catching other Grid Runners which will give them a set amount of experience depending on their difference in level. Faction Gameplay

Hinweis der Redaktion
- As mentioned earlier, players are assigned to one of two groups or teams. First are Grid Runners. Grid Runners must explore their physical area in order to complete story based objectives. Runners may also have to meet with other runners in order to pass off items and information, all while avoiding capture. If a runner is caught by a detective, their current mission fails, and they are unable to participate in the game for a set period of time, based on their current level. The second playable faction are the detectives. At the start of each day, a detective is assigned a target which they must pursue in order to gain experience, advance their level, and collect special items. If a Detective is able to successfully capture a Grid Runner, they will then gain experience points based on the difference between their level and the Runners.
- Grid Runners is a virtual game of tag mixed with cat and mouse. The gameplay will consist of players physically locating other players through the GPS tracking of their phone. Once an ISIU Detective has located a Grid Runner, they must be within 50 meters to start the combat sequence. The combat will be a turn based style that allows players to fight or defend themselves in real time. When the battle is over, the winning player will be rewarded while the loser will be set to inactive for a certain period of time. The game will have daily and weekly events that all players can participate in. Each player can create a hideout for themselves where no one can attack or track them. Players can create groups/organizations to increase the game play experience. Each group/organization can create a hideout where all its members can meet. This hideout can be a physical location om the map and players can gain access to it by either physically being at its location or by being at their own hideout. There will be locations where players can âhackâ into parts of the Grid to obtain information, loot, and increase their hacking skills. Each location will need a specific hacking level to gain access.
- The audio will be a driving force for establishing tone in this game. We on team Dagger want the player to feel as though they are truly in the moment no matter where they actually are. The music in the game will be a collection of techno styled music that will change depending on the situation. Techno style music will help to give the feel of a more futuristic surrounding. The player will also have the option of importing playlists from their phone. Other sounds will include clicking when using menu buttons, sharp slashing sounds being the player is hit with an attack, swooping with menu transitions, and sounds that are appropriate for any attack the player may select during combat.
- Grid Runners is a unique game in that it will allow the players to create the character that they wish to be, this is done through stats. Stats are the basic mental and physical attributes that dictate the characters abilities. Mind - this stat will dictate how quickly the character will be able to spot oncoming trouble or locate items. The six key stats are as follows: Body - This stat will be the primary stat for physical activities like escaping and close combat. Skill - This stat will affect the characterâs ability to perform long ranged attacks and can offer them the chance to disappear into crowds Luck - This stat will have a very minor effect on all abilities and could, possibly, help the player find better loot. Letâs face it, some people are just born lucky. Hacking - This stat will allow players to hack into specific locations where they can obtain vital information or valuable loot. THe locations will reguire a certain hacking skill level. Stealth - This stat will allow players to increase their ability to not be seen by others. The higher the stealth level the closer other players need to be to start the combat sequence.
- Groups can be created via a website or through the in-game interface, and can be linked with other social media accounts. (for example Facebook and Google+ used due to the strong social media systems they offer) Group leaders have advance access to the group settings. (for example creating private sessions, editing various info, and leaving messages to the rest of the group){Need to clear up issues with groups if players are randomly switched between Detective and Runner factions. Seems like disadvantages to both sides if the group can see when players are switched.} Public Groups will allow players to create personal contacts and connect with other players
- Individual runner hideouts will be set by the player, to use their house as a safe point from Detectives. Once the player enters their individual player hideout zone, they will not be able to be attacked while they are within that zone. At the same time, they will not be able to take any action upon the outside world while they are within their individual hideout. The most important thing that a player can do while in their hideout is access their group hideout, if they have joined a group organization.The only other way to access the group organization hideout would be to go to the physical location of where the group hideout is located. Multiple group hideouts can be located in the same region, but Runnerâs will only be able to benefit and access the group hideout that they belong to. While accessing the group hideout, Runners will have access to the black market, where they can buy specialized items.

- The combat menu will consist of attacks, defence, items, and escape. Each button has a submenu that will correlate to the players skills, stats, or abilities. Playerâs combat will be heavily dictated by stats and gear that they acquire while playing the game and leveling up.

- The GPS is the heart of the game. It will track each player when they are playing the game and it will allow the game to notify the player of different events or hacking points in the area. The GPS will use a Google Maps type mapping software that will allow each player to see their location as well as others in real time. Much of the titles core gameplay revolves around the ability to pull the location of a given player via the GPS tracking component of the mobile device used to play the game. This allows much of the titleâs interactions to take place within the physical world in real-time based on their current location and immediate area. The GPS will be used in order to approach other players, collect items, and track movement. Exploration benefits explained more in Exploration/Looting slide
- Players walk around their city/town to receive rewards and bonuses Distance traveled is tracked and rewards are received by reaching milestones (Rewards explained in Upgrades/Microtransactions) Daily loot point landmarks (Certain location marked as a loot point. If the player goes to the location they receive the loot)
- Gear pieces are simply items a player is able to loot from defeated players and drop zones that will have a positive effect on the playerâs stats. Gear will offer players the chance to further customize their play style.
- In social media. Runnerâs profiles canât be seen by Detectives and vice versa. Players can only converse and share information with members of their current faction. Players will be able to use social media to share the locations of group hideouts and the locations of Runners/Detectives. Allows entire cities to easily get together and plan out strategies for the next big event.
