Google Sketchup "Game World" Exercise

Use google Sketchup to create a 3D game world setting.

Please Note - Sketchup is already installed on the room 474 Macintoshes - it can be found in the Applications folder:





Using Sketchup - create:


Either an interior - e.g. a room, or inside space - domestic, industrial, commercial
(e.g. a house, a shop, a factory, a theme park, a mall etc)

Or an exterior - e.g. a street corner, a small airport, a section of a town or village,

Include:

1) Buildings
2) Vehicles
3) Characters (people, animals)
4) Urban details - e.g. roads/traffic details

Keep the dimensions of the setting simple - e.g. a collection of buildings

Use the large archive of online 3D objects to create a scene suitable for one of the following:

a) 3D Shooter Game

b) Top-down role-playing game

c) 2D Game - e.g. platform game
