Hello all! Welcome back to another TeamTopHat development blog and we will be talking about the test data we have gather during the external testing session, as well as further development milestones that are mentioning.
External Testing Session:
The external testing session went very well and we managed to gather tons of data and feedback that we can use to improve the game and fix any issues. We ended up with around 20 responses by the end of the day, with a chance for more responses in the coming days. Using this data, we can organize this within a list and pick out key statistics or topics that are common.
More internal testing will be conducted over the coming weeks as we reach closer to the end of our project deadline, and we will update you if any breakthroughs occur!
Player Path Analytics Results:
During the testing session, we implemented a player path tracker that allowed us to see which players travelled where and whether everyone had a similar path, or a different route each time. The results were very surprising and told us where players usually go towards as soon as they enter the room.
Theatre Room Implementation:
The Theatre Room that we have been talking about throughout the blogs is now complete, along with the mechanics! For this design we wanted to still continue to follow the Victorian style but make it more grander in looks through the inclusion of gold carvings.
The Theatre room will also feature a small scaled boss in the form of trials that the player has to complete in order to break the seals on the jar and finish the game. 3 trials will be playable and are currently in greybox phase, however we still included both the Theatre Room and Trial levels in the test build, as the mechanics were done and more test data on those mechanics would be very useful to have.
Dungeon Maze Room:
Progress on the new revamped dungeon maze room is still underway, with assets being developed for them and mechanics being solidified. This will be updated and stated on the blog as more changes are made.
Conclusion:
We are currently in the midpoint of development, with more changes being implemented as we speak, we thank you following the development of Mad Mansion and look forward to more updates!
