Hey guys.
I’m happy to be finally developing my first commercial game. I want to start with the right foot, so I decided to do a small survey to understand my players a little bit better. Here is what I came up with:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1sr6RbOmbTEXZ2lEZPAZxfhoO7CwdMx-mYjXvLrK9x4k/viewformSince this is my first time doing this I wonder if there is anything you guys have to say about my survey. Also, if there is any tips on how to run a survey of this type, I would really love to hear them since I’m trying to figure this out as I go along.
(You don’t have to fill the survey if you don’t want to. I currently marked all the questions as non-required so you can just hit continue if you want to.)My main objectives with my survey are
- Better identify my target player as well as his/her likes and dislikes
- Test the appeal of my setting and general artwork style.
- Gather some very raw ideas about how the combat system I’m thinking will be perceived by users.
- Start to build my email list
Right now I’m thinking about asking people to fill the survey on facebook groups, reddit, and other random internet forums and communities. I might ask some pages to run the survey for me hoping I get some administrators to agree.
Any suggestions comments or ideas?
Edit:
Also, if anyone wants to take at the results of my survey. I'm more than willing to write an article about it
