Hello everyone! In my journey of becoming a better game developer I'm starting a series of videos related to what makes the games fun to play.
The first topic I did a research on is "why are games so addictive". I discovered many new things for me, and I'm happy to share them with you! I hope you'll also learn something new by the end of this video!
Leave a comment what topic would you like me to cover next, and make sure to be subscribed not to miss future videos!

Excellent video! I see soo many survivors clones on steam but the vast majority fail to realize that its success wasnt just because of it being easy to play, it had rogue like elements, or the fact that the player could defeat countless hordes of enemies, as fun as that core loop is. Skinner Boxes galore. The entire game revolves around rewards (many of which are random) with casino like visuals and sounds. It was cleverly designed to be addictive.

Yeah, just the damage numbers going up releases sooo much dopamine

You should make another evolution survival with more complexity like enviroment, temperature, and more things you can evolve like fur and mass to help out I loved that video!

And maybe monkeys also, to see if they evolve to become something similar to people

@@Im_the_best_duckwouldn't the mechanism for that need to be coded in? I think modular creatures would be more interesting

I think the main thing is: Have "awards" feel good, and have enough "rewards" throughout playtime.

Nicely edited video however I fundamentally disagree that this is a good idea. As game designers it's not our job to create an addiction that will take over peoples lives. Instead we should strive to create enjoyable experiences that are compelling enough for the players to spend time in them.
