Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant describes the gameplay as controlling a bubble that dodges dust particles in a 2D infinite side scroller format.
  • Another participant notes the challenge of changing the bubble's size to navigate through closely spaced dust particles, mentioning that the score does not increase while in a shrunken state.
  • A player expresses concern about the frequency of advertisements, particularly after each death, which they find disruptive given the game's challenging nature.
  • The same participant raises an issue with the game's screen rotation, stating that it rotates counterclockwise, making it difficult to use a stand for their phone.
  • The game developer acknowledges the feedback regarding ads and screen rotation, indicating an intention to address these issues.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the game's challenging nature and the disruptive impact of advertisements, while the issue of screen rotation remains a point of contention with no clear resolution yet.

Contextual Notes

Limitations include the developer's decision to lock the game to one rotation and the potential impact of the operating system on gameplay experience.

I made a game in Unity in C#. It's meant to be simple and hopefully fun.

I will really appreciate the feedback.(The obstacles move in a sinusoidal pattern)

Hmm well you play as a bubble trying to dodge dust particles in the air (it is basically a 2d infinite side scroller) Um Sometimes the dust are quite close together so you are able to change the size of the bubble to fit between the small spaces but your score WILL not increase in that shrunken state. Hmm that is basically it haha.

I decided to give it a try. However simple it is, it is also very challenging to me.
The particles differ in size and makes you need to shrink and enlarge yourself while still maneuvering through the dust particles.
One thing that did somewhat bother me were the advertisements, you will have a ad popup every single death. As I said, I thought it was rather challenging and only having a high score of 7 so far, I die very quickly. That means I get a ridiculous amount of ad popups.

Also, I don't know if you can fix this or it is just the operating system but my phone screen rotates the game counter clockwise. My screen cover has a stand built in but that stand would only work properly if the game were to rotate clockwise. If I were to put my phone on the stand of the cover, I would have to play upside down. :P

So these are my two cents, very simple but challenging game but the ads, man!
 
Sorry about the ads, I'll try to fix it and the screen rotation. I actually locked it to one rotation cause I thought it would be easier to play like that.
