Because of our efforts in optimizing for Xbox Cloud Gaming, we were able to appeal to users who don't have Xbox consoles, and we felt that there was a lot of potential for future title development. We have adjusted the 3D mode by rearranging the buttons for better ergonomic accessibility, and the 2D mode by hiding most of the unnecessary buttons and enlarging the Directional pad to make it easier to play.
Although we were already in the final stage of development when we were asked to support Touch controls, it was very easy to integrate into the game and create custom touch layouts. For developers looking to fully harness the capabilities of a player's device and provide a best-in-class experience that seamlessly adapts and transitions to different form factors, Xbox Cloud Gaming includes several additional techniques that a developer can leverage.
These more advanced techniques do require a developer to crack open game code and even possibly rethink some game or interaction design. The rewards, however, are a title that looks and feels like a truly native experience and a more adaptable design that may even benefit players in non-cloud scenarios.
When your game is played via Xbox Cloud Gaming, your players may be experiencing it on screens ranging from 4k TVs all the way down to the phones in their pockets. User interfaces which look great on a large screen may be too small to work well on smaller screens.
Using this information, a cloud aware game can calculate a sort of "virtual DPI" to help figure out what the appropriate scale for its user interface should be. For instance, if the game is rendering x pixel frames, and the player's device is rendering them with a size of x 62 millimeters, the player is experiencing the game at approximately DPI.
With this data in mind, the game can then select the best size for their UI elements to make them the most usable for the player. Games also have the ability to update properties of the touch layout at runtime to reflect the state of the game. Properties such as the visibility, look, or even the input that a control is mapped to can be updated to match the current game state. A few examples of where this may be useful:. For more information on this capability and how to think of it versus switching an entire layout, check out the full documentation at: Changing Touch Control Layouts Based On Game State - Game Streaming Microsoft Docs.
In addition to using the Touch Adaptation Kit to render on screen controls, titles can also receive the raw touch inputs that a player is using to interact with the game. This allows you to build touch experiences which really feel native to mobile.
Titles can build natural mobile interfaces, like tappable buttons on menus, pinch to zoom and pan to scroll on maps, or even tapping on the place that you'd like your character to walk to.
The Touch Adaptation Kit and native touch interfaces are not mutually exclusive - for example Minecraft Dungeons has a native touch interface in their menus, maps, and inventory system while using the Touch Adaptation Kit for the main gameplay loop.
Additionally, a fully customized touch implementation requires only a relatively small investment of time and resources. For instance, a small team at Mojang spent only seven weeks to develop the fully custom touch interface for Minecraft Dungeons.
Minecraft Dungeons. Football Manager Xbox Edition " The relatively recent arrival of touch control into the mix has added a few challenges to the process, but it's also thrown up a few unexpected bonuses.
For example, take the tactics screen see screenshot. Touch controls also aid in the Match Day experience; shortcuts to Shouts, Instructions and Mentality can all be accessed effortlessly when quick changes are needed to turn the tide in a crucial match" - From the desk of Stuart Boyd, Senior Console Producer at Sports Interactive.
Below are some of the resources you can use to get started with Touch Controls on Xbox Cloud Gaming:. We hope you have found this information helpful and inspiring! Cloud gaming is lowering the barrier of entry to gaming. By leveraging touch adaptation and cloud aware technologies, your game can reach more players than ever before, including players without consoles or even controllers.
