Balancing Zombie Shooter Game for Optimal Fun

Problem

Our team was tasked with creating a zombie shooter game that would be engaging and fun for players. We wanted to create a game that would challenge players while also providing them with an immersive experience.

One of the biggest challenges we faced was figuring out how to balance the difficulty level of the game. We wanted it to be challenging enough to keep players engaged, but not so difficult that they would become frustrated and quit playing.

Solution

To address the challenge of balancing the difficulty level, we spent a lot of time playtesting the game ourselves and getting feedback from others. We made adjustments to the gameplay mechanics and enemy AI until we found a sweet spot where the game was challenging but not impossible.

We also focused on creating an immersive experience for players by including detailed graphics, sound effects, and music. We wanted players to feel like they were really in a post-apocalyptic world fighting off hordes of zombies.
