The Lens of Visible Progress

Players need to see that they are making progress when solving a difficult problem. To make sure they are getting feedback, ask yourself these questions:

  • What does it mean to make progress in my game?
  • Is there enough progress in my game? Is there a way I can add more interim steps of progressive success?
  • What progress is visible, and what progress is hidden? Can I find a way to reveal what is hidden?
