Spring Up Harmony PC<\/a> was released a few months ago, it’s now a good time to study statistics of the rewards (or achievements) of the game. Rewards are a good way to see what the players are really doing in the game.<\/p>\n

These are the stats of online<\/em> players that played the full version<\/em> of the game. To have more data, I also used data from pirate players<\/em><\/a>. Pirate players do not appear in the leaderboards<\/a>, but I still log their achievements. I consider a player has the full version (legally or not) when he has played a level not included in the demo.<\/p>\n

I sorted the achievements according to the percentage of players having it.<\/p>\n

Multiplayer<\/h4>\n

You played ten multiplayer games.<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n
1.2%<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Another stat not shown above is that no player have all achievements.<\/p>\n

The main thing to learn from these stats is that I probably spent to much time implementing the multi-player mode. It was not that long to develop but more levels would have been better. It’s probably because it’s only multi-player on the same screen and not online. The achievement “Two In One” seems too easy. Maybe it should have been “Three in One”.<\/p>\n

Players, do you like achievements?
\nDevelopers, do you also log the achievements of your players?<\/p>\n
