Essential Principles of Video Game Character Design: Impact of Bugs on Gameplay and User Engagement
Abstract: This paper examines core principles in video game character design and how design errors affect gameplay and user experience. By analyzing character aspects such as visual identity, animation smoothness, behavioral adaptability, and audio effects, the study identifies critical factors that enhance player immersion. Errors in these design aspects, like visual or audio desynchronization and predictable behaviors, disrupt player engagement. Findings underscore the importance of a comprehensive approach to character development, aligning visual, auditory, and behavioral components to ensure a cohesive player experience.
Keywords: character design, video game immersion, user experience, animation realism, cognitive tension
