Players are so excited to explore or beat their previous score to see what rewards or special bonus is                     awaiting ahead. You can provide emotions by using sound effects, background music, character expressions, text,                   movement, color combination which can really helps player connect and get into your game.

Angry Bird –> is not 1st Slingslot game. All these three game player know the core                   mechanics.

             We need to create a gameplay with prefect balance of difficulty, challenge & enjoyment. The goal is to design your                 game to be somewhere in middle which is perfect balance of excitement which will keep your player engaged                         longer.
