  1. TraceRace Pitch By Mike Antonakes & Ryan Abbott

  2. How to play • Outline a series of drawings as accurately as possible using the mouse • Speed and accuracy are important • You only get one stroke to pull off this feat – no erase ability, no second tries, nothing.  • If you get an accuracy less than 50%, then you fail the drawing, earning yourself a strike. • Three strikes, and it’s game over! • The greater your accuracy is, the more points you’ll earn.

  3. Why is it enjoyable? • Simple concept – everyone knows how to draw! • Very accessible game • Gameplay is simple to learn, hard to master • High variety in drawings = high replay value • Gameloop is very rewarding • Lots of polish – very visually appealing

  4. User Interface • Designed to be visually appealing, clean, and easily readable • Hence why we chose Helvetica as a base font • Minimalism-inspired visuals, with emphasis on typography, iconography, and 2D graphics. • This all benefits the player by removing as many unnecessary layers between the game and themselves – a common problem found in most HUD designs • This cleanliness stands out from the likes ofCityVille, giving the game a unique selling point.

  5. Networking/Database Usage • TraceRace connects to Apple’s IAP/Game Center servers for the following actions: • User information query/transmit • Achievement progress updating • Leaderboard progress updating • Handling in-app purchases/returns • This is all a proprietary system not unlike MySQL, but MySQL itself is not present. Inter-server communication still exists. • All users are prompted to log in on app launch, doing so will transmit any localplayer statistics to the account which is logged in.

  6. Thank you! Please refer to readme.txt for instructions on how to run TraceRace.
