11:00 Game Development Work Session
This morning, we are going to put the final touches on the Alpha of your game. On Tuesday, you each will test each other’s games out and provide crucial feedback. In most game studios, Alpha testing is done by those who are involved with the project.
We are working towards game play and testing for Tuesday, Wednesday and a Game Jam on Thursday of this week.
The testing & implementation phase is an essential part of the game development cycle. Testing or Quality Assurance includes careful planning, documentation of bugs and errors and follow up on the fixes that need to be made.
Before you start testing, it is a good idea to develop a test plan. The test plan details exactly what kind of performance tasks/tests need to be made. Basically, what are you testing? This might be the ease of use of the GUI, the core game mechanic, the story, user inputs and or the user experience.
Today’s Deliverable: Plan for 4-6 questions to test about your game. Dropbox for your Google Form is in Google Classroom. Complete this today to stay on track. We’ll generate some testing questions together to assist you.
