QA Lab day one:
I tested five games during this QA lab ,There Might Be Ponds, office mayhem, Kanji Samurai, The Fog, and an unnamed tower defence game. All five of the games tested where digital and for the most part functional. I had never tested these games before this being my first QA lab. I enjoyed most of the games thoroughly but i found myself liking There Might Be Ponds the most. There Might Be Ponds is a charmfull puzzle game that implements a intersting to hand mechanic in which you use both analog sticks on a controller to solve puzzles as if you were manipulating the environment with your hands. As well as thoroughly enjoying there might be ponds I thought it had to most potential to succeed in the future thought this might just be my preference towards story driven puzzle games.The test that they had me do on these games where just play tests and asked how I felt about how the games played. I didn't find anything other than a few balance issues wrong with the games that I played. In particular the Kanji Samurai was extremely difficult to complete.

All five games where again digital and all very functional. I found almost all of the games enjoyable to play excluding the werewolf game. I found the werewolf game to overall be poorly made. The animations where strange and unnatural, the voice work was repetitive and overall poorly done, and the gameplay was clunky and boring. In this Qa lab I had played two of the games twice before There Might be Ponds, and Office Mayhem. I still found myself enjoying There Might Be Ponds the best of all five of the games. The addition of an end sequence made the demo even more enjoyable to play. The testing was very similar to the first QA lab that I attended. I only had to explain game play problems with the games that I
