E-Learning Game Design: Development & Review #472

Game Design: Development & Review #472: Challenge | Recap

Welcome to the third week of our e-learning game design challenge. 

Last week, you built a working prototype from your storyboard or design concept. 

This week, you’ll focus on bringing the core elements of the e-learning game together to create a detailed and functional model. Your game should be far enough along to submit for final QA and testing.

🏆 Challenge of the Week

This week, your challenge is to share a fully developed version of the game that incorporates all designed elements, interactive features, animations, and multimedia components.

Optional: Since this is our last week of development before submitting the final project, let a few friends or fellow challengers play your game and gather feedback in Review 360. It’s the best way to spot any problems and see what people like or don’t like.

I know many of you have been gathering feedback all along, but I’d like to highlight the testing and review process this week. 

Week 1: Concept & Storyboarding

Week 2: Design & Prototyping

Week 3: Development & Review

• Goal: Develop a detailed and functional version of your game
• Deliverables:
• Apply and refine the visual design elements
• Integrate the interactive elements, animations, and multimedia components
• Refine the visual design and user interface to enhance the overall user experience
• Submit to Review 360 for user testing and feedback (optional but encouraged) 
• Share a link to your project

Week 4: Final Testing & Project Submission

🚨 NOTE: Even if you didn’t participate last week, you’re still welcome to join this week’s challenge. Ideally, you’ll complete all four weeks, but any participation is appreciated. Share what you can.
