Platform: Oculus Rift, PS MOVE | Role: Game Designer, Programmer
Iterations:
First Version: In the first version of the game, guests were controlling a magic circle to absorb their soldiers in order to occupy enemy islands.
Challenge: Guests find it boring to watch soldiers fighting. After putting warriors on the island, they have nothing to do except for watching.
Second Version: We introduced an evil dragon to the game world. Players should watch out and protect their soldiers from dragon’s fireballs during the whole game process.
Challenge: Guests are having fun protecting their soldiers but sometimes they feel it hard to judge distance in VR world, so they cannot block them correctly.
Third Version: We let guests absorb fireballs instead, so the distance problem won’t bother.
Challenge: Some guests feel hard to reach the furthest island. Some of them are not familiar with RTS and are feeling confused.
Final Version: We rearranged islands from line-style to circle-style and made a video tutorial for naïve guests.
