Furthermore, 100% of the users felt a desire to explore the garden upon seeing it for the first time. According to the results, 42.9% of users explored the garden for a duration of 1\u20132 minutes, while another 28.6% explored for less than 1 minute; finally, the remaining 28.6% explored the garden for more than 2 minutes, which confirms that players did indeed feel a desire to continue exploring despite the garden&#8217;s small size. On the other hand, 57.1% of users encountered bugs in the garden area. All comments submitted by players mentioned issues related to collision detection, which hindered mobility when attempting to move forward. Upon review, I realized that these &#8220;collision bugs&#8221; stem from deformations in the terrain; the collision surfaces of these deformations appear to be too steep relative to the player&#8217;s collision geometry, resulting in the player getting stuck. Even so, the feedback and results were generally quite positive, and I&#8217;m glad the players liked the design. I&#8217;ll try to fix the collision issues with the ground and objects, and I&#8217;ll also adjust the object scaling relative to the player so that everything feels more natural and realistic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During the user testing for my garden game, I obtained positive results, as 100% of the users liked the design and the exploration of the garden.
