Why We Need Funding
Video game development is very expensive as there are a lot of elements that need to be purchased / leased to make development possible.
Development includes but is not limited to…
• Art Designers
• Engine Development
• Voice Actors
• Storyboarding
• Music

Art Funding
Art is the biggest funding point in video games as it is essential for a successful product.

• Characters are hand drawn by a talented artist with a common base to allow for multiple expressions
• Maps are created with “Multi-Layered Texturing” to allow affordable and efficient environments

Art Funding
Objects will be created with animated objects known as “Sprites” to quickly and effectively fill the game with interactive characters and objects.

Engine Funding
An engine is the driving core of how a game performs mathematical operations to determine how elements interact within an environment. This project will use a modified form of RGSS3 engine for its cost effectiveness and scalability.

Voice Actor Funding
• Voice acting is a very expensive feature to add within a game because it requires hiring staff to record their voices to be used within the project.

Music Funding
• Another major funding point is music which is used to add atmosphere within an environment.
• A single music composer will be hired to maintain consistence thought the whole game.
