Sprint 2 - Team 7 Feature ticket: Detailed eviction cards designed to select the traitor

[LIU-Evelyn]

Description

In the context of the game where Atlantis is about to sink, players need to find the information of the traitor who will cause the sinking of the continent through the quest, and after confirming the information, expel them from the continent to protect Atlantis. So players need an eviction menu to choose who they think is a traitor, which can also better deepen the interaction between the player and the game. In order to allow players to select the traitor more accurately, the team will design and implement new eviction card features based on the completed player eviction menu interface. More detailed eviction cards (NPC information card) can help players determine who is the traitor. Players can view the eviction cards at any time for checking clues to the corresponding NPCs they find in the game.

SubFeature/component

• Detailed eviction card - Displays basic information of each NPC on each card (e.g. Image of NPCs; Name; Gender etc...).
• Windows (pop up) of information and clues - Displays the information/clues of the corresponding NPC collected by the player in the game .

Examples

• Detailed eviction card - Players can know which NPC the eviction card corresponds to based on the basic information.
• Windows (pop up) of information and clues - After clicking on the NPC eviction card, the corresponding information/clue window will pop up (displaying the information/clues that have been collected).

Dependencies

• Information about eviction character relies on storyline and NPC interactions (Sprint 1 - Team 5 Feature ticket: Instructions & Storyline #7 and Sprint 1 - Team 9 Feature Ticket : Communication with NPC #9 ).
• The basic image of NPC that shown on the cards depend on character design (Sprint 1 - Team 1 Character Design #13 ).
• The Player Eviction Menu (Sprint 1 - Team 7 Feature ticket: Player Eviction Menu / GUI #4 )
