Player Experience
This covers what the player should experience while playing Sword Draw.
Beginning
Player should build up attack and defense quickly. Enemies should be low damage, to encourage playstyles and give users their 90 seconds of enjoyment.
Midway
Player should notice that he needs to keep up his stat levels. Player should lose slightly more than he gained.
End Game
Player should need many levels of attack and defense. Enemies should have high attack and defense levels. They shouldn't take much damage from the player, but should be able to dish it out.
Player Choices
These are issues the player should have to keep interested in the game.
Speed vs Accuracy
Should the player try to quickly trace the pattern, or slowly and accurately trace each dot?
Premature Attacks
Attacks can be finished prematurely for less damage.
Benefits
- The player can quickly finish attacks to deal damage.
- The player can discard pesky pattern immediately, instead of wasting time tracing it over.
Disadvantages
- The enemy takes less damage from the attack, reducing damage over time (efficiency.)
- The player may have gotten more stat boosts if it finished the pattern.
