Presentation and Graphics

UI

Menu

To give off a creepy vibe straight from the beginning I gave the main menu have noise post processing. The music track playing is viviphobia by pikaro, a friend of mine that kindly allowed me to use their music in my game. I found it matched the atmosphere perfectly.

Player HUD

I kept the HUD minimal, and had health and ammo outlined with a red border to help draw attention and make them clearly visible to the player.

Feedback

I had a few people mention the size of the blood being too big and spreading out too much. I want there to be lots of blood to match the name, Bloody Battlegrounds, but I may lower the size of the blood particles a bit.

Damage feedback when shooting mentioned. A flash effect on the enemy hit, screen shake, or hit sound effect were suggested.

One tester found it hard to differentiate walls from walkable surfaces.

Other additions mentioned include:

• Mags dropping when reloading
• Footstep sounds with different surfaces
• Shadows from walls to help with depth
• Allow the player to get closer to the top of walls, going slightly behind the wall.
• Enemy sounds
• UI Button sounds
• Victory/Lose sound
