We playtested the experience with 21 playtesters. We were happy to hear that a lot of people found the experience very relaxing. They often compared it to yoga, commenting on the relaxing music and visuals provided. However, we also listed a few problems we found in the playtest.<br \/><br \/><\/p><p>1. Problem gauging the ground level and left and right. Especially the legs.<\/p><p>2. Almost all playtesters followed both \u201cWatch me\u201d and \u201cFollow me\u201d. This was a surprising result. Even though we implemented fade-in and fade-out screen to tell people to watch first, then follow, almost all the playtesters followed both times. We plan to explain this better with voiceover so people can know what they are expected to do.<\/p><p><span style=\"background-color: var( --e-global-color-primary ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">3. People struggled with \u201cHold\u201d. We initially implemented this to make sure the users understand the position before moving on. However, with no feedback about how to correct themselves, this is not serving the purpose we hoped.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"background-color: var( --e-global-color-primary ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">4.
