She must journey across exotic lands, solving puzzles and finally defeating the Evil Wizard, to save her people.

Report RSS Dev Diaries - Testing my latest build

I’ve had a great opportunity over the last couple of weeks to get some feedback on my Princess game. My class took over a small gallery space in college, and I was able to display the game.

The main problems brought up were the little things I wouldn’t notice. Or rather, certain items that can be interacted with have a glow effect around them. However I neglected to realise that people would try to interact with glowing items before they should.

Obviously I need to make sure items only have a glow around them once they can be used.

I am going to work on creating a UI, displaying the current objective, and any items currently in the player’s possession. The pop-ups I had created are not good enough, as they disappear too quickly and they do not return.

It was suggested that I knock some of the levels into one, making fewer, but longer levels. This is because the narrative seems to jump about a bit, and it’s over a bit too quickly. That will be a long term goal.

For now, I will sort out the smaller problems and continue to test it, and hopefully upload a demo to here next weekend.
