3. Gameplay Overview
Before starting the production, we need to outline the gameplay logic for this caseοΌ
Upon entering the trial version, the initial screen displays a dynamically animated scene with worms crawling all over the cake.
Operation instructions appear, guiding players to click on the screen to spray insecticide.
When players press anywhere on the screen, they will be redirected to the app store.
4.Production Approach
Core Concept: Minimize the number of animations and events within each scene, maintain clear logic in scene segmentation, and keep the layer structure simple.
Scene Segmentation: Based on the gameplay overview in Part Three, we determine that only one scene is needed for this case.
| Scene Name | Scene 1 - Inducing Click |
|---|---|
Visual Rendering | |
Scene Description | The dynamic scene plays in a loop, guiding players to click and drive away the insects. |
Animation | [Insecticide (represented by a guiding finger)]: Displacement Easing [Guiding Text]: Flash |
Core Events | Trigger Object: Layer - Group Node (Screen size should be sufficient) Trigger Event: Press Response Event: Redirect to app store |
Asset List | [Audio]: Background music, click sound effects [Image]: Background image, insecticide (finger), guiding text background image, logo, CTA button [Text]: Guiding text, download text |

Step 3 - Logic Settings
β
°. Layer Event - Group Node
1οΌSelect the group node (Note: Since we need to set a full-screen press event to redirect to the app store, the range of the group should be large enough; alternatively, you can directly set the scene event in Scene 1, following the same steps);
2οΌAdd event - Press;
3οΌAdd response event - Redirect to app store;
4οΌOther response events: Set postback event / Report the end of the playable ads / Play click sound effect from the beginning.
β
±. Layer Event - CTA Button
Select the button group and add an event - Press. Add a response event - Redirect to app store.
Step 4 - Overall Preview
β
°. Landscape Layout
After completing the vertical layout for each scene, it is recommended to perform landscape layout (using the "Reuse Vertical Position and Size Configuration" button frequently).
β
±. Screen Adaptation
Perform screen adaptation for various device models and their orientations (portrait and landscape), and preview to check if the adaptation is appropriate.
β
². Overall Preview
After completing the entire production, you can perform an overall preview for different device models, languages, and orientations (portrait and landscape).
6. Demo Screen Recording
