Sprint 3

Spike Trap

Round 1 (Sprint 2)

User Feedback Notes

• Make spikes taller + pointier
  • Spikes appear blunt at the moment
  • Unsure how much damage the spikes cause
• Add more dimension + depth
  • Suggestion: 2-3 shades of colour per element
• Spikes are a bit crowded and hard to see
  • Suggestion: add fewer spikes and make spikes themselves bigger

Changes for Next Design Iteration

• Make spikes larger and taller (+ 2-3 pixels)
• Use fewer spikes (~ 5)
• Dimension for platform
  • Use 3 shades of colour per element
  • Add wooden texture using different shades of pixel lines

Round 2 (Sprint 2)

User Feedback Notes

• Spikes itself are flat in comparison to board
  • Suggestion: draw at same angle platform
• Spike placement
  • Suggestion: make spikes even bigger
  • Suggestion: add more spikes/increase density
• Would be cool if it got bloody as the enemies walked on top
  • Suggestion: Space out the wooden texture a bit more (have less detail)

Changes for Next Design Iteration

• Spikes
  • Make more angular (adjust perspective according to grid angle)
  • Make larger
  • Add more spikes
• Wooden platform
  • Have more spacing between detail lines to make wooden texture more sparse

Marbles Trap

Round 1 (Sprint 2)

User Feedback Notes

• Good use of colour and shading
• Too many marbles in tile, makes it look busy
• Marble size too small
• Hard to recognise as marble
  • Extend shine/highlight on top
  • Kind of look like blueberries at the moment
• Good spacing between marbles
• Spacing between marbles is too uniform
  • If game is end of the world, marbles would appear less straight and orderly

Changes for Next Design Iteration

• Make marbles larger
• Use fewer marbles (~ 5)
• Make spacing less uniform
  • Turn into cluster instead of rows (potentially in a flower formation)
• Dimension
  • Extend the shine/highlight length to make it look more glass-like

Round 2 (Sprint 2)

User Feedback Notes

• Good use of shading
• ‘Flower’ formation is more playful than previous version
• Suggestion: add drop shadow underneath marbles

Changes for Next Design Iteration

• Add drop shadow underneath marbles

Claw Trap

Round 1 (Sprint 2)

User Feedback Notes

• Lack of details
• Lack of colour
• Should remove the black outline
• Consider more 3D visual effects

Changes for Next Design Iteration

• Use borderless drawing (replace black outline with darker shade of chosen spike colour)
• Add more details ('skeleton' structure, hinges, red target at the centre)
• Add 3D perspective (use 2-3 shades per element)

Round 2 (Sprint 2)

User Feedback Notes

• The size is too large for the map
• I don't know what the trigger looks like

Changes for Next Design Iteration

• Size can be reduced by 25%
• Add the effect map after triggering
  • Create animation effects using Procreate
