Game Concept

We decided to create a motorcycle simulation game. It will consist of two different stages; the basic learning stage, and the test stage. The learning stage will be like a practice round where the user actually learns how to work a motorcycle and control it in the game using a keyboard. The test stage will be more complex and contain challenges and obstacles that the player has to deal with. Based on how well and safely they drove their motorcycle, they will receive a score at the end of the course.
A player can choose to aim for being the safest motorcycle rider, or the most daring and dangerous. By obeying traffic signs and safely maneuvering around obstacles they can earn safety points. On the other hand, if they attempt crazy stunts at radical speeds they can earn dare-devil points.
The display will be a 1st person view of the motorcycle and rider with dashboard-like indicators near the bottom of the screen indicating the speed, gear, etc.
Our game can be played by almost anyone, but is most suited individuals old enough to appreciate wit and who are a little interested in motorcycles or in competing against themselves for higher scores. Because our game will be fast-paced and points-based, it will be thrilling to the player.

The end objective of this game is to teach the player how to correctly operate a motorcycle, but the game is fun because players can break the 'rules' they learned in their training on a fun course or compete for safety points and see how knowledgeable they actually are about motorcycle driving.
