Seventh Assignment
This week we had to use the gameflow evaluation matrix to score another game and afterwards "Who the f*** is?" so that we could see the things we could work on, the aspects that are missing and so on.

Chicopee Games Inc. were testing the “facebook” application “Geo Challenge” because our game will be working similar in some ways. We found out that it is working quite well [which is obviously why it is so popular]. However that comparison of your games helped us to understand the difficulties of an online game, such as these “facebook” applications.

Even though it supports the competition between the players, because of the unobtrusively visible score, it appears not as a game which supports cooperation between the gamers. We know we probably won’t be able to change that fact for “Who the f*** is?”. Therefore we were thinking of a new way to create some kind of social interaction between the users. Our plan is to manage some sort of “Live-Challenge” where two participants get the same quests and are really playing against each other.

Coming up next week:
New pics an sketches

it sounds like the analysis was worthwhile and you got some additional idea for your game out of this.

good progress - well done!
