Abstract

This study investigates the design and development process of “Super Journey”, a 2D platformer mobile game aimed at enhancing user engagement and satisfaction through innovative game mechanics and design. Utilizing the Agile methodology, the development stages included conceptualization, design, implementation using the Unity game engine, and iterative testing and evaluation based on user feedback. This development process involved crafting a detailed game design document, creating initial sketches and prototypes, and integrating graphical elements, animations, and game mechanics. The game features 3 levels with simple controls, visually appealing pixel art, and progressively challenging levels. A survey conducted with 20 participants revealed high overall satisfaction (4.15 out of 5), with particular praise for level design (4.25) and game mechanics (4.2). Feedback indicated areas for improvement, such as balancing difficulty levels and incorporating more diverse obstacles and enemies. The findings underscore the importance of agile, user-centered design in game development and provide insights for future iterations to further enhance the gaming experience. “Super Journey” exemplifies the effective integration of classic platformer elements with modern innovations, highlighting its potential in the competitive mobile gaming market. The results of this research are expected to serve as a reference and inspiration for other game developers to create superior products by combining innovative technology and thoughtful design.
