combat will be of more fun.

8. Design Concept
Gameplay Design
What do players play in games? Gameplay, innovation and
experience!
Why now players are complaining games are getting more and more
boring? The trend of mutual copying is getting more and more
serious. In both systems and gameplay, players can only see minor
differences between games. There is no innovation in them at all.
Of course, players will get bored.
In Chrono Light, there is no equipment enhancement or skill
books. Instead, every hero has their own special Talisman, which
consists of 4 talent trees. Players can allocate talent points and
decide how the heroes will develop, in this way to cultivate their
own unique heroes.
9. Design Concept
Balance Mechanism
In current market, most games are quite out of balance in their
mechanisms. It is common to see that a high-paying player can easily
defeat all other players in a server, or non-paying players can not
catch up with other paying players even after they devoting much
more time in game. If it goes on like this, the game will gradually
lose its non-paying and less-paying players at the bottom of the
pyramid. Losing its popularity, the game can only be ended with
server closed.
In numerical and gameplay design, we've considered the
survival benefits of pyramid bottom users. With tactical assignment
of heroes and cultivation, they will be able to compete with those
non-experienced high-paying users. We've set some limit to the power
expansion of high-paying users, so as to prevent them from
snowballing and monopolizing resources and avoid the lose of bottom
users.
10. Design Concept
Development Concept
Our original intention is to make our game player-oriented
and player-focused.
During the process, designers will consider the gameplay, functional
practicality, operational convenience etc. from perspectives of
players. After relative modules come out, designers will experience
them as normal players to find out the defects and fix them
immediately.
In order to ensure players a better gaming experience, our art
designers will check every image in the phone to see whether front
sizes are okay, whether colors are mixed up. whether buttons are
convenient etc.
Though we are young, we are not afraid of failure; though we
are small, we have our dreams too, as we ourselves are also players
