Combat Sector

Starting the game, yay!

Monetization – renting weapons, upgrades, roulette wheels?

Only 3 game modes?

• Deathmatch• Team Deathmatch• Domination (aka Point Capture)

This has be done before. Lots of times! Throw something interesting my way.

No tactical gameplay, just grinding• Combat Sector has aim-assist• Your basic gameplay is hiding behind cover while

reloading, repeat• Where are the grenades???

Spice it up and make it more accessible

• Add different style weapons, just shotguns and flamethrowers aren’t enough

• Don’t try to monetize me until I’m addicted, guide me through the menus. This _is_ a browser game!

• Reimagine your UI design

Earn to Die

EARN TO DIE LYNCH• Game icon is pretty boring for such an epic game• Name is not very memorable

EARN TO DIE LYNCH– First purchase 20$ out of 25$ I had before even trying the track

– In shop use X symbol instead of OK to close without choosing

– Cancelling a purchase can be easily missed and first it felt like I did not have the option

EARN TO DIE LYNCH– Once I got to play literally in less than 10sec I was out

of fuel which ruined the fun– Not a good idea to have fuel as a restriction cause it

limits the fun of playing– Cash warning when restarting for the first time not

necessary– In the beginning you spend more time in the garage

than you do playing– Level design is bad since with half tank I got as far as

with a full tank and a better engine– Why am I not allowed to do and IAP to speed up my

game?

EARN TO DIE LYNCH– I found little to no use of the physics buttons

EARN TO DIE LYNCH• Personally I'd prefer this as an endless track game where monetization is based a bit more on and a bit less on purchasing equipment

• Try out Hill Climb Racing for a good example of how to construct monetization in this type of a game

Bob’s Dementia

Game Presentation

- Hideous visuals (please get an artist to draw the art)- Why "Bob's Dementia"? Where's the link between the name and the Game?- No emotional bond to the character- Game icon:

Game Presentation

- WHERE'S THE AUDIO!??!?

Gameplay

- What's the story of the game? No intro, no communication with the player, etc...- What's the level objective?- Run through level, kill the ever same enemies...- Unclear on-screen infos - One level after another -> senseless level crawling

Gameplay

Lame drops:

Core loop

summary

upgrade

Upgrades....

- never enough money to buy them....

Gameplay

- The game is soooo repetitive. Only thing that changes are the backgrounds:

-> Enemies, drops, traps, obstacles, EVERYTHING ELSE stays the same!! WTF!? O_o-

And a couple of other things to finish....

- Is this game finished or already released?- Motivate the player: LEVEL UPs are not well communicated. what do i get for it? - No secrets to discover, no branches, no alternatives (even when finding 2 keys)- No increasing challenges, no learning curve, no rising difficulty- Where's the tutorial or explanations? - Perma death? Come ooooooon..... =/- Randomly generated levels DON'T work!- How about a shop to buy items?- Maybe rename it to "Bob's Torture".... or "Philipp's Torture" ;)
