The diverse age ranges of our playtesters gave us a variety of feedback, offering us a comprehensive understanding of how we can iterate our game in the future. This invaluable experience will be a cornerstone for further refinement of our game as we continue to shape our game for the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"633\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"287\" src=\"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/xpresso\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-14-105527-633x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-287\" srcset=\"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/xpresso\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-14-105527-633x1024.png 633w, https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/xpresso\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-14-105527-185x300.png 185w, https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/xpresso\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-14-105527.png 694w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 633px) 100vw, 633px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"620\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"288\" src=\"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/xpresso\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-14-105459-620x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-288\" srcset=\"https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/xpresso\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-14-105459-620x1024.png 620w, https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/xpresso\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-14-105459-182x300.png 182w, https:\/\/projects.etc.cmu.edu\/xpresso\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Screenshot-2023-11-14-105459.png 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In anticipation of the playtest day, we have incorporated a myriad of enhancements into the engine and updated the game to its latest version.
