get ready for soft opening

It did not take long for us to realize the importance of refining our animation to suit our audience’s preferences. This involved a continuous loop of collecting feedback, sifting through it to extract useful insights, incorporating them into our iterations, and then reflecting on the results. Ahead of presenting our work to faculty members during the soft opening to gather more detailed feedback, we made further iterations based on the insights gathered from Playtest Day feedback.

During our presentation, some rough spots in the animation and layout caused confusion among the audience. It became apparent that we needed to synchronize the visuals more closely with the background music and enhance the sound effects to create a better sense of Viktor’s surroundings through stereo sound. To address these issues, we meticulously timed each crucial moment and fine-tuned the sequencer. Additionally, we wrapped up the intricate sculpting of the monster for the concluding scene, ensuring every detail was perfected.
