Our team designed the games Snake and TRON for a teenage and young adult audience. Our demographic research shows these games satisfy our customers needs for a quick distraction from everyday life. Customers report our games are challenging, competitive, and engaging; a simple solution to boredom.
With 80s culture becoming increasingly popular in the media through fashion, music, and TV shows, arcade games like Snake and TRON will be successful in the current market, and stand out from competitors, or other simple video games, making it a good investment decision
Recommendations for future development include adding “special eggs” to our snake game. These special eggs can include an egg that makes the snake travel faster when eaten, an egg that makes the snake travel slower when eaten, an egg that shrinks the snake, or an egg that makes the snake change colors. These new eggs could be different shapes or colors to signify that they are special eggs. These special eggs could also be applied to the TRON game even though there were not eggs in the original game. Updates such as the special egg update could be released periodically to maintain the customers’ interest and support. Additionally, each game would ideally be released with catchy, arcade-themed music.
