Activity:
-Refactored one-page game design based on feedback
Notes:
Some people said that the bad thing about my design is that they cannot really deduce the proportions of the player to the environment in the Spiky sky part of the level. Someone also said that they don't know where the portals should spawn you in the scenes. Another person mentioned that they don't know what some icon means.
As a reaction to the first issue I resized the character (which served only as a spawn location until now) so that it fits his real size. I also spaced out the obstacles in Spiky sky so that its more evident how the player can jump between them and beat this part. The second and third problems were caused by the fact that these people didn't read the legend. That means they didn't notice it on the first glance. Since the legend contains crucial information to understand the design I gave it a background with different colour than all the other backgrounds so people are less likely to miss it.
Also just wanted to mention here that the most important feedback I got from todays lecture (Project A feedback) was that we don't write journal entries that are descriptive enough and give the teachers a solid understanding of what went through our minds as we did the homework so I'll try to improve on that :D
