This week the Tuesday Tales focused on gathering as much playtest data as possible and preparing for Softs. Jon and Matt worked to recruit as many playtesters as possible for a weeklong playtest through Hockey app. Of the 20 people whose emails they received, only 3 downloaded the app to give them playtest feedback. As such, they transitioned to doing a short interactions on CMU’s campus. Jin and Nicky joined them and worked together to playtest on campus on April 20th and were able to get around 12 people to play the game and give feedback.
Emre, Jon, Nicky, and Matt also worked to prepare the experience to be shown to faculty at softs next week. Jon and Matt worked to plan out the script for softs and how faculty will be lead through the experience to ensure they get a sense of our entire app. This included coming up with the key talking points and planning out time to ensure that the presentation doesn’t go over 20 mins. Nicky and Emre worked to prepare a build for softs that let the game be showed off without requiring staff to go to CMU campus and walk to each of the buildings to destroy them. This helps to ensure that the full app can be experienced in the 20 minute segments with each faculty pair.
