Testing…

Posted 1 year, 2 months ago at 10:44 am. 4 comments

Port of the game to scratch SDK seems to be going really well. Mike has gotten a bit more intimate with systems he wasn’t very familiar with, like the camera. This opens up to a lot more customization on that front without him relying on someone else.

I conducted a playtest last night with a local tester who was new to computer FPS, and definitely new to the sword fighting genre. I had him walk through what he was doing, feeling, and what confused him. It was a great experience and allowed me to get some good feedback of what it’s like for a new user to approach the game. Expect a lot in the way of usability improvements in the upcoming build. The worst thing for a new player is a giant learning curve and hopefully we can make that curve more of a straight line.

Happy Holidays!
