Responsibilities

Time stopper was designed to include matrix moments with level design. mechanically simple, I designed this game with replayability in mind adding a simple scoring system. the three targets in the game was a regular billboard which was designed as a simple no risk target, A timed billboard which appears and vanishes quickly and a moving target which will kill you on impact. The goal of the game was to abuse its slow motion mechanic to score as much as you can. My design goals were as followed.

Ensure that the slow motion was used as much as possible.
hitting enemies with the bullets must feel good.
when entering slow motion, everything will need to be slowed.
create moments which are impossible to complete without slow motion.
to help them focus on shooting, take movement away from their control using ramps/pitfalls.
