    Bernard’s last thoughts: make sure you know what your game’s challenge is, and polish toward that. And when making nostalgia-fueled games, make games as you remember them, not as how they actually work.

    On Early Access, the community was a big deal. Motion Twin highlighted what changes came from player suggestions, and tried to make a show out of the dev process.

    The unforeseen consequences: combat could actually be harder because players weren’t dying to stupid deaths, and reviewers gushed over the controls before talking about gameplay.

    Combat in Dead Cells is also guided by supporting player intention. The game guides melee hits toward enemies even if the player is facing the wrong way, and light auto-aim makes sure players are getting shots in.

    Even simple jumps in Dead Cells rely on these control tricks to help players not slip into stupid deaths. Jumps in Dead Cells support the player’s intention, and double jumps are there from the...jump.

    Dead Cells’ controls are designed to make the platforming less challenging, because it’s not the challenge in this game. Bernard says it’s important for players to know why they died, and stupid platforms deaths don’t feel as fun.

    Also the short death loop is important! A few seconds, and players are back in the adventure again.

    With no backtracking, giving players incentives to return to the start, like abilities that unlock new zones, are important.

    Permadeath isn’t anything new in games, so how did Dead Cells modernize it? Bernard explains that using death as progression and as a way to limit how much content needed to be made were what helped the game succeed.

    A big party of Dead Cells’ design revolves around permadeath, so the next few slides will break that down.

    Some context for how Motion Twin makes decisions. Bernard stops to call out how equal pay helps newcomers feel empowered quickly.
