Individual Conducted Playtest with Forms + Project Review

I conducted a secondary playtest with a few people whom I know play games and would be interested in giving feedback. I got a sample of three people and created a form for them to fill out.

The average time it took for them to each complete the game was: Zeshan 15 mins, Callum 10 mins, Miguel 20 mins. Considering their backgrounds, this makes sense. Having a diverse research group gives me insight into all the kinds of players that may pick up our game. As our team wants to develop this project further over the summer, this will be utilised to aid that.


Review on this Project

Personally, I feel like this project went very well. We had one of the best demos on showcase day. It fully functioned with only a few minor tweaks that needed to happen. We did have a few hiccups at the beginning with a clash between members, but that was fully ironed out and resolved. We had strong teamwork and great communication enforced by my project management. I would like to do something like this again, and I know the others would too. We are going to be getting the intended boss fight done over the summer and uploading the finished game onto itch. We may continue even further to make a full game, who knows? I learnt so much from this project by being pushed into a role I knew nothing about. I feel like I’ve come out with the best outcome I could possibly have with the situation I was put in. I know my attendance was rocky, but that didn’t halt my progress on the project.
