Hey everyone, last week we gave you a summary of Perth Games Festival and our experience there. Just to keep you all updated here is a Post-Mortem so you all understand what went well, what went wrong and what we as a team felt we could have done differently! There will be another blog post coming this week as well! 

WHAT WENT WELL:

• Promotion our game well though stickers and plush mascot
• On theme booth design
• Unity in team communication
• Preparation prior to event and management during the event
• Swift pack up and close of event
• Consistent players on game
• All roles were filled consistently
• Quick execution of problem solving
• Promotion of touch points including socials throughout event
• Unique promotional material
• Effective design choices including consistent style throughout poster, stickers, and business cards
• Networking between other game developers and streamers
• Responded well to unplanned interview
• realistic in what was achievable

WHAT WENT WRONG:

• Survey promotion
• Computer failing to log on before event
• Faulty keyboard that confused players for game bugs
• Game took too long to play so there was slow player rotation

WHAT WE COULD HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY

• Better organisation of notes and colour coordination
• Changed game scene for faster gameplay, leading to faster player rotation
• More proactive with who plays our game
