Re-imagining Classics: Evaluating the Consistency Modeling Methodology Through Game Development

Abstract

UI/UX encompasses essential principles, guidelines, and work flows critical to designing effective digital applications. In video game development, UI (often represented as HUD's) and UX play a pivotal role in shaping player experiences. A well-designed interface prioritizes relevant information, simplifies interactions, and enhances user satisfaction. This paper explores the "consistency modeling" methodology, which leverages established designs as references for crafting new interfaces. To evaluate this approach, we upgraded a classic game and conducted a user survey via Google Forms. The survey assessed in-game experience and satisfaction on a 1–10 scale, yielding a mean rating of 8.35, indicating a positive reception to the redesigned UI/UX.
