USER NEEDS

Pain Points:

  • Combat in games often lacks fun and impact
  • Visual feedback for player actions can be insufficient
  • Destruction effects may not be consistent across all objects (e.g., walls lack FX)

Problems to Solve:

  • Creating satisfying combat mechanics
  • Providing visceral feedback instead of numerical indicators
  • Ensuring consistent visual effects for all destructible elements

Potential Solutions:

  • Implementing destruction systems that replace solid objects with broken parts and particles
  • Studying games with impactful combat (e.g., Tainted Grail) for inspiration
  • Adding FX to non-destructible surfaces like walls for better game feel

  • Playtesting before launch to gather feedback
  • Community engagement through platforms like Reddit
