 PROJECT PROGRESS | 15-17 March 2021


In this stage, I have started caring out the usability test. Website usability testing is a practice of evaluating the functionality and design of your website by observing the user's actions and behaviour as they complete a task. (testing? testing?, tests? and website?, 2021) During the test, each user would be given an objective for usability testing. This would help to see if the website prototype is easy to navigate and at the same time, while the user is testing out the prototype their action would be screen recorded. This is to see the behaviour of the user if they have face any obstacle in the process of reaching the objective. After they have gone through the website prototype they would be given a questionnaire to help with collecting feedback from the user. The questionnaire is to collect data on the web prototype. 

Responses Analyse 
In this web prototype testing, there is five users who would be given an objective. The user would have to reach their objective and they can also explore the website. 

Forms response chart. Question title: Usability test objective. Number of responses: 5 responses.
Forms response chart. Question title: Is the website easy to navigate?. Number of responses: 5 responses.
Forms response chart. Question title: Is there naturalness in website interaction?. Number of responses: 5 responses.
Forms response chart. Question title: The screens are consistent.. Number of responses: 5 responses.




At the end of the test, it seems that the website still needs some improvement from the user feedback. I felt that this usability test has helped me to understand the user more and on how to make this website better. There is some important part where I have missed out on this website prototype. That is from the user feedback I have noticed that the VR game should be placed as the main highlight this would attract the audience to view the website. While playing the VR game the audience would also understand the importance of colour and they would also be interested in exploring other content of the website. The main page of the website should be explaining more about the VR game than continue on other information. There is also some linking page that is needed to fix. 

The usability test has helped me to understand which part needs improvement and why it needs to be improved. To create a good website, first, we would need to understand our user and also how they behaved throughout the website.

Iteration Design
After analysing the result from the user I have started on fixing the problem from the user feedback. There are parts where I would need to check again as there is some problem in the linking part. 

Problem to fix list:
1. The arrangement of the navigation putting VR Game as first 
2. Button "game" change to VR Game
3. Change the website title to a clearer title exp: "welcome to the VR Game"
4. VR Game page*
- It is a bit inconvenient because I need to scroll down to understand how to play the game first then I need to scroll it up to play, I think that explains the game first and place the game after it. 
- Take away the explaining the game as the game inside have the explanation 
replace it to the purpose of this game is about? 
5. Colour palette page 
- linking part don't let the screen go up when the user presses another page 
6. colour blind & colour palette should fall under About 
7. Buttons are too small*
8. Hover needed to add background to the dropdowns 
9. Navigation bar needs to have a background 
10. Recheck the linking part

  PROJECT PROGRESS   | 26-28 April 2021 This week, I had complete prototype 02 and also started to do the presentation slides. After that, I have also completed the project prototype documentation. There, I have listed out what I have learned throughout the prototype that I had created.  Project Prototype Documentation I have also done the documentation of the prototype, the documentation is for documenting the prototype process that I had done. This, I had also documented the things that I learned from the prototype that I created.  3029MAPA CW1 Prototype Documentation by ABBY LIEW MAY XING on Scribd Presentation Slide Presentation slides that I had prepared.

  PROJECT PROGRESS   | 05-07 April 2021 This week, I would be continuing working on the VR Game and also sketches of the character storyboard. In the progress of building the food festival, I have noticed that the environment is a bit empty. Therefore, I have started placing tree from the free asset store. It is to make the environment closer to nature. The food festival will be held in a park where people from all around the world would enjoy a sunny day with a clean environment. Why is it a park? It is because the park has lots of tree and grass surrounding the environment and when in the colour blind world the colour of green and red would appear as yellow and blue. This would allow the players to experience what it looks like in a world without green and red.   VR Working Progress Image 01 Image 02 Image 03 To solve the lighting on the right of the food stalls, I have decided to lower down the wall and also work on the entry of the food festival.  Image 04 ...

   PROJECT PROGRESS   | 19-21 April 2021 This week, I will be working on the VR Game progress, high fidelity prototype 01, high fidelity prototype 02, character bubble speech and button design. I have researched the button design before started on designing the button. Moving on, I have also done some experimenting on the bubble speech to let the audience have the mood to play the game. To add the character story inside, I have done some character animation at the beginning of the VR Game to create excitement for the audience.  VR Working Progress Character Button / Speech bubble  Game Button Research by ABBY LIEW MAY XING on Scribd High Fidelity Prototype 01 High Fidelity Prototype 02
