steem hop: Some important tips for improving mobile control and gaming experience
Dear steem hop development team,
@afzalqamar @realrobinhood @blockseater
As a regular gamer and user of your platform, I am very optimistic about the future of the steem hop game. However, based on the current gameplay experience, I would like to draw your attention to a very important technical issue for mobile users. I think that the following issues need to be resolved quickly to make the game more popular and user-friendly.
1. Limitations of the current control system:
Currently, when playing the game on mobile, you have to click on the screen to move the character. This 'tap to move' method is quite difficult for mobile devices and in many cases frustrating. Especially when the speed of the game increases, clicking to move the character left, right or forward is often not correct. This is ruining the overall flow of the game.
2. Introducing Swipe Control:
In the mobile gaming world, the 'swipe' system is the most effective for such arcade or runner games. My suggestion is to add a swipe option instead of or as an alternative to the click system.
- Swiping up will move forward.
- Swiping right or left will move the character in that direction.
This will make the gaming experience several times smoother and more enjoyable.
3. Virtual D-Pad or On-Screen Buttons:
For many users, it is convenient to have specific direction buttons on the screen. If transparent buttons for forward, backward and side movement can be placed in the lower two corners of the screen, the control will be much more accurate. This will reduce the chances of game over due to wrong clicks.
4. Response Time and Sensitivity:
When playing on a mobile browser or app, there is often a bit of a lag in the response to clicks (Input Lag). If the control system can be optimized and made more responsive, players will be able to enjoy the game more comfortably.
5. Why is this change necessary?
Currently, most users play the game from mobile. If the control system is not easy, new players will not stay in the game for long. The more user-friendly the game is, the more player retention will increase and the popularity of the game in the community will increase.
I know you are constantly updating the game. These suggestions of mine are not a negative criticism, but a request to make the game more professional and international. I hope the team will seriously consider these technical issues and we will see an improved control system in the next update.
Sincerely,
A loyal user of yours @mamun123456
