For this unit we had to do a questionnaire and get people to fill it out.
Below are screen shots of mine, if you would like to fill out this questionnaire follow this link:
Here is so charts of the responses I've gathered so far:
From this questionnaire has shown me a few things that have helped me make a few decisions when making my game.
Firstly, I can see that the type of game I have chosen has mixed opinions and ratings that it would have a good chance of having a good effect on the gaming community.
Secondly, I can see that the best platform choice would be PC because it has shown to be the most popular platform. People would like PC because of how easily accessible it can be and has a better connection to the internet through Ethernet cable rather than wireless like a console would be.
Thirdly, I can see that the game aspect people like the most are good story lines and apart from that there are two other aspects that people would like in tower defence games is experience levelling and mechanics.
People like experience levelling because it gives them goals to reach and can create competition between friends. I have used this information to add a wave counter on the game over screen so my game can have that competitive side to it and give players the a reason to try again and beat their previous score.
To reflect, I could have gathered better results by seeing if I could have asked more people from more different backgrounds than I did to give me a broader I idea of what people like in a game.
