weekly update

This week we had lab and got feedback on how to improve our document for the delivery so we worked on that. We have also begun to discuss and think about what we want to find out with the player feedback. We need to choose some relevant evaluation methodologies for our questions.

Development Cycle and Workshop

Hello! We have done our workshop this week with our lovely focus group and we had very good results from it: we were able to remove some game ideas that weren't needed and didn't make sense for our fast gameplay. We want the players to play for fun and not make them "backtrack" too much in our game. Furthermore, we have a lot of new ideas that ressurged from this workshop such as the whistle item, which you can use to call a pet of yours! And you'll be able to choose between different pets eventually as well! They're there to help you with your tasks! You'll see :) Our deliverable, which includes our updated design documents and our workshop report, is turned in and we're ready for the next one: the prototypes ! Will you help us? Contact me at joao.meira@tecnico.ulisboa.pt or in facebook if you want to participate in our player feedback workshop! As always, stay tuned! 😄 ~evoll~

During this time he gets to know their personalities, and learns about their preferences and interests. Like this he can make them happy during the dialogues, and so he is finally able to cure them during the night. the player character is not strong enough to defeat / weaken an angry / aggressive and therefore strong villager (in his monster transformation) during the night! Therefore the player has to survive multiple nights, and has to progress quickly during the daytime. This also opens new possibilities for the nighttime gameplay: the player has to hide and run away from strong mo...

READY!

We are officially ready for the MOJO, which is happening in a few hours! We wanted to have implemented some more features, such as the sounds and the whistle action, but unfortunately we did not have time. However, the game seems to be pretty fun to play and people that we are showing this and letting them play actually like it! Let's go! See you tomorrow @MOJO! ~ evoll ~
