Playability

Every player was able to figure out how to play the game so I don’t really need to make any changes to the controls.

Difficulty

Overall most players found the game to be pretty easy. I would want my game to be a bit more challenging so I might go back and add more obstacles.

Walking Speed and Jump Force

These were two very important questions because this is what I was most concerned with. Overall most players were satisfied with the walk speed so I will leave that as it is. However, most players thought the jump force was too high. If I have the camera follow the player it might take care of this issue.

I’m glad to see that everyone was able to make it to end of the level.

No Comments on User Testing For Dark Legacy

I uploaded Dark Legacy to itch.io, posted a user testing survey, and got some results telling me that 66.7% of the players think the game is mostly unfair. Yet one person said the game was just a challenge.

Dark Legacy was rated as Difficult by 66.7% of the players and Rage Inducing by 33.3% of the players for the difficulty rating.

As for feedback for the game, here is what I got.

I can see I went overboard with the difficulty and plan to nerf the game to make it easier and less punishing.

Result from the survey:

Some people complain the game has a little controllability issues, something that I’m afraid of before the game went live. I will try to fix this by optimizing the collision model.

The respond for pathfinding is in the range where I’d like.

I want my game to be a little challenging, but adding a few more platforms won’t hurt.

One person said improve calligraphy is pretty funny but I just need them to funtion nothing more.

Metal Jacket needs more polishing but I like the result.

Again, reports of jumps being difficult. Will address that.

I noticed the 3rd level has a impossible jump too. I will fix that. I wish I can give the tanks more intractions like shooting their cannons and missles. But for the sake of time I can’t do anything about it.

Improvements to do list:

Collision optimization

Difficulty and jumps

Imppsible jumps in 3rd level

Here is the link to my survey:

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScdPYTGF6YHSJVP69hm6kbm5xpNtIYCgPIYT8pgeO2O3kBftg/viewform?usp=sf_link

Here are some of the results from my survey:

Everyone who played my game found it easy to play.

I’m happy with the difficulty being relatively easy, I will try to ramp up the difficulty in later levels.

I personally am happy for the playtime of this because it is meant to be a short and simple level 1.

One of the people who played my game described the hitbox for the last enemy being off so they couldn’t beat the game. They also didn’t bother restarting to replay and try to beat it, so this motivates me to make my game more engaging for the player.

Here are the detailed feedback from people who played my game. Moving forward I’m definitely going to look into fixing the obstacles of my game and making the visuals super good so that playing it becomes smoother and more enjoyable. I will also fix the bugs with the instruction screen as more than one of my players had that problem.
