Curve of difficult in the videoGames

Today we can play a lot of tittles in the industry, where they show us many riddles and puzzles, which are a great difficult to the player, we can take a example the first level of “Super meat Boy”, it shows all the skills in a subtle way and prove how the game will be from now, each world shows the mechanics with a difficulty that will grow as we improve in the game, this is how the curve of difficult works.

Although not all can’t be perfect, the most of tittles don’t respect the concept of difficult design, just like Andres I think the games confuse difficult with injustice, transform the challenge in a impossibility, I consider two ways of difficulty, one is easy peasy  like lemon squeezy because that games don’t have a challenge, the other is too hard, and you need to practice if you don’t want to be a failure.

I don’t think like Steven ‘cause Terraria is game where you don’t have difficulty, this game depending of your equipment making everybody can won the game in a couple of hours, another example can be “I Wanna be the Guy”, this is a hard game but when you arrive the boss`s place this game put the curve of difficult over the clouds, Men I couldn’t beat the first one!!   

In conclusion we can affirm that the industry still need learn how use correctly this method for obtain a fair and hard game... uwu
