Pop up problem partially fixed


The game has a major issue with pop up, we have pop up in the following places:

  • Every quest will automatically pop up onto the screen
  • Every quest complete will show a pop up
  • Every unlock will show a pop up
  • Leveling up has a pop up

The worse one by far is the new quest pop up, its very intrusive, it kind of forces the quests on you which is sort of the opposite of most RPG games which generally have quest givers where you go and collect the quest. With that in mind, I have modified the game to show just an icon informing the player of a new question becoming available. The quest log will show how many quests are available. The player can now go to the quest log or speak to one of the quest givers in the various towns and cities to view a quest.

I am yet to think of a solution to reduce the clutter of quest complete.  I thought maybe show which quests are complete in the quest log and allow the player to manually go and complete the quest to collect the reward. Losing the automatic collection however feels odd and may even be confusing. I will have to ponder this one for a while.

Unlock pop ups have had the blocking background removed and the level up pop up is so small and brief that its more like a notification so she be ok as it is.
