Game Quality Guide
This guide aims to provide developers with a summary of experiences based on successful cases on the platform. It is recommended to use it in conjunction with the platform's Mandatory Requirements. The following content consists of non-mandatory suggestions, but following these principles will significantly improve game quality and user experience.
User Experience Optimization
🤖 Usability Design
- Adopt an intuitive game mechanism design to ensure that players can quickly understand the core rules.
- It is recommended to integrate a progressive teaching system or use internationally recognized visual symbols to lower the learning threshold for players.
💬 Interaction elements should meet ergonomic standards:
- The size of functional buttons should be ≥ 48×48px.
- The response delay should be controlled within 300ms.
- Avoid UI layouts that may cause accidental clicks on ads in the design.
Gameplay Design
✍️ Interaction Feedback
- Ensure that all player actions receive immediate visual/audio feedback.
- The game difficulty curve should use a dynamic balancing algorithm to maintain a balance between challenge and achievement.
📲 Multi-platform Adaptation
- Implement a responsive interface design to adapt to PC and mobile devices. See the QA configuration for details.
- The PC version is set to landscape mode by default. It is recommended to use an adaptive or 16:9 screen ratio. If the game is a vertical-screen game ported to mobile devices, a 9:16 ratio is recommended.
- The recommended ratio for the vertical screen on mobile devices is 9:16, and the recommended ratio for the horizontal screen is 21:9.
- Clearly mark the game mode restrictions (e.g., prominently prompt for pure multiplayer games).
Product Differentiation
🗃️ Content Management
- Adopt a modular architecture design to support subsequent content expansion and maintain continuous updates.
- The core gameplay mechanism should remain stable after being determined.
🏙️ Brand Recognition
- Establish a unique visual identity system (VIS).
- Naming convention: Avoid common names (e.g., "Chinese chess") and recommend using differentiated names (e.g., "Super Chinese chess").
- It is strictly prohibited to infringe on third-party intellectual property rights.
Audio-visual Specifications
🎨 Visual Standards
- Maintain consistency in art style (resolution, color scheme, artistic style).
- The promotional materials should accurately reflect the actual game content.
🎶 Audio Standards
- The volume of background music and sound effects should be comfortable.
- Ensure that the audio content is highly consistent with the game theme.
Operation Control
🎮 Input Design
- Support the recognition of keyboard layouts (including AZERTY/QWERTY adaptation).
- System shortcut key retention strategy:
- Temporarily disable Esc/Ctrl+W in full-screen mode.
- Keep the original functions of system shortcut keys in normal mode.
🕹️ Adapt to Platform Controllers
- It is recommended that the PC version support keyboard or mouse gameplay, and the mobile version match virtual buttons.
- Our platform has provided you with a compatibility solution for different platform controllers. Please read our QA Controller Instructions.
