During this ten week project, we have had two playtesting sessions, both of which have been tremendously helpful in the development process. For our first playtest in anticipation of the Alpha we didn’t have much of a game to present, it was a never-ending level with only two enemies and no power up. Despite having very little to show, we received […]

Hi,
I found this post well written and straight ou started by introducing the concept of iteration and feedback. In a couple of lines you have summarized what we have been told and explained by our teachers during this year about the importance of playtesting, feedback and iteration.
