This week, we focused on building the alternative controller and took part in the Playtest Night. With discussion both in team and with faculty, we finally decided on the experience we are going to build for our game.
Playtest Night
We asked a few playtesters to playtest our game, and have received much feedback. Playtest notes were scribed during playtesting. From the feedback, we found that when players started to assemble bodies, they were trying to assemble a full body instead of creating a monster. However, we would like to encourage the players to be creative so we decided to add some bodies that have already been assembled at the start scene.
Design
Testing with the touch frame, we have found that multiple touching on the touch frame is not as accurate as we supposed it to be, which could be a challenge for the body assembly gameplay. After discussion, we have decided to use the touch frame for grave exploration, and change the body assembly to an experience instead of playing it on the screen.
