Legal
There wont be a lot of legal issues that could be caused by our product. The only issues would be that as the unity game engine states, we would not be able to sell the game without it being an issue. Another issue could be that our game isn't copyrighted and that this could cause legal issues as somebody else could take the idea for the game without it being an issue. Another issue could be plagerism as our game was created on different influences for example some of the aspects of our game resemble other games.
Ethical
There wont be any ethical issues as our game will cater to all ethnicitys.

LO4 Analysis of market trends
In 2015 the market trends have been steady throughout the year. The current trends for genders in game are 48% female and 52% male. This trend has steadily been leveling out for the past few years as there is a growing population of female gamers. This is important as this needs to be considered when creating a target audience for a game. The average age trend is increasing as it has gone from 30 last year to 31 this year. 29% of the gamers this year were under the age of 18. This tells us that there is a huge variety of ages that play video games. Which is extremely important when considering the target audience as these audiences are completely different in there game requirements.
From this increase in the video game popularity this has created the bi product of a sudden emergence of a lot more independent games being released and a lot more indie companies being formed. These indie companies tend to release smaller games often of the rouge-lite and survival genres. These genres have also become popular this year through media like youtube and twitch.tv as the broadcasters influence the market trends by showing off games to large audiences.
