Topic: [UPDATE] | monk.gg PvP Crypto (Testnet) Casino | Looking For UX/UI Feedback (Read 146 times)

Is it easy? Yes and that's the main idea of UX but at the same time, it's not aesthetically pleasing, at least I think so. You have to seriously work on UI and change the current structure a little bit and make it much more beautiful.

I think that the buttons and fonts in the middle and right sides look very big. I would also change the font type. And I guess there wasn't spend much time on color combination and psychology. You can find amazing color combinations on Dribbble.

Also, have a look at competitors and seriously analyze them. And in this case, I don't only mean crypto casinos but every digital casinos overall.

If you want to get off the dash Yep I think you should change the font size or the font-weight on the sub-categories title. About the white space, I believe the sub-items of the categories are all have the same margin right? Maybe you could make it closer, I think it will be good-looking.

I can't think of any suggestion about that. I believe the behaviour when exiting the modal should be reset to the original page, it would be nice to keep it the current way if the user unintentionally exited out, and upon re-clicking, the modal stay the same. But I think the probability is small. So yea, I prefer the modal should be reverted to the original page.

Thanks for visiting and providing us your feedback, it is much appreciated

I guess the dash (-) isn't really necessary under the sub-categories on the left navbar, we just thought it gave a nice sense of separation between clickable links/menu items and their respective titles. If we were to get rid of this, would you recommend doing something like increasing the font-size or using a different font/font style? Or do you think it's fine just the way it is (without the dash (-) of course)? As for white space, do you think that the menu items are too close or too far from their respective titles?

Oops! This is our fault. It was originally working correctly, but it must have accidentally been removed or overridden last minute. We fixed it and it should be working fine now though.


This is feedback that we've heard before so it will definitely be changed in the future. We plan to remove this loading spinner and instead redesign our components to look good when certain data is not yet loaded instead of having a spinner in place.

Do you have any preferences for the placement/styling of the 'Back to Options' clickable item in the wallet modal which would make it more apparent to you? Also would you like us to reset the wallet modal back to the original page after closing and re-opening it?

Form control for the login modal has been added! We also added a new 'Forgot my Password' feature which can be now used as well.

Thanks again for checking out our website and telling us what you did/didn't like, we really value the feedback you gave us. We know that there is large room for improvement and we're prepared to go through many iterations of design and development until the experience is perfect for the user. We hope to see and hear from you in the future as more updates roll out

Firstly, we're happy that you took the time to go through the site and provide us with your feedback and I'd just like to say thank you for that. I'm glad that you're overall comfortable with the current color scheme and layout.


We considered adding a light color scheme before, but we weren't really sure how many users would actually want it. Now we know to prioritize it and add it in the future.

Being completely honest, we're not really familiar with Bitsler casino so any similarities in design are purely coincidental. We worked alongside a web designer who gave us iterative updates and asked for our feedback throughout the whole design process.

Our actual goal is to eventually integrate our own testnet faucet (for all coins) that users can utilize throughout the lifespan of our website. Even after we go live with non-testnet cryptocurrencies, we would like to have a place where users can test out games with testnet currency (ex: something like test.monk.gg). However, currently we only use other testnet faucets that are publicly available on the web such as this one.

In the future we'd like to integrate 3rd party accounts (Google, Twitter, etc.) to the sign in and registration process, but this will most likely be taken care of after the Jackpot and Rock, Paper, Scissors game modes are live on the beta.

Despite the fact that there was missing form control on the front-end of the registration modal (which is currently fixed now, we just added it), our backend validates that certain fields must abide by certain rules. It would actually not be possible for users to generate a password under six characters. Screenshots of invalid registration attempts (pre-update) are shown in the screenshots below.

Too short of a password example:

We definitely appreciate and value the feedback you gave us and hope to hear more from you after our future updates! Let us know if there are any other things that you would like to see added or changed or feel free to message us with any other questions or concerns. Thanks again

I don't see a point why you using the dash (-) on the title at the fixed left-side of the navbar. I think if you made an improvement on the typography, and the white space for the sub-item it would be good.


I sent a long character on the live chat, and the message is offsetting the fixed layout.

Personally, I don't like the website that has a full-page loading page between transitioning/moving any page, and the site does it every time I clicking any page. It becomes annoying for me.

Also, upon checking the wallet feature, when I go to the withdrawal modal then exiting, and reopening the wallet again, it goes straight to the withdrawal modal. I thought it is a bug because I can't change between the withdrawal or depositing modal, turn out I didn't catch the back button until I'm looking thoughtfully.

About the login/register modal, I think you better add form control for the login modal, I notice on the registration modal you implemented a form control but not on the login modal.

Overall, the site looks quite good, but still, there is still room for improvements. I also agree with Examplens about adding dark/light mode.

I have to admit that the complete design looks pretty good. I like this colour scheme, but still, maybe you can light scheme options for people who are like it more than dark. day/night choice can be enough. but this way everything seems pleasing to the eye and everything is clearly indicated, so it doesn't take much time to get acquainted with the application.
to me, this is pretty similar to Bitsler casino. Levels, XP points, menu and chatbox layout, part with switching currency etc... But I guess this is okay, better have someone who works well as your role model.
For the test period ^{probably for later}, it will be fine if you integrate a faucet or some other form of free coins so that users can test all the features of the games. XP points can be useful for that (same as on Bitsler)
About registration, it will be fine if you add options to register with social media accounts. I mean registration in one or two clicks.
Also, you didn't really create any special security to create the password. It is possible to create a new account using "11" as a password. This can make you have complications sometime in the future.

I haven't testnet Bitcoin, so I didn’t go any further into the playing procedure and deposit/withdraw feature.

Hey everyone! Since our last post back in February (here), we have been hard at work conceptualizing and implementing a solidified UX/UI for the monk.gg website.

We are looking for input from the Bitcointalk community to give us a general idea of how real users feel using the website on our updated UX/UI. We would love any feedback from a new set of eyes. Any additional feedback on things such as our name, logo, and any other aspects of the site that you can think of is welcomed and encouraged.

After receiving some feedback from the community on the updated UX/UI, we plan on integrating our RPS and Jackpot game modes into the live beta; the latter being unique to the crypto gambling space. We are still working on how the RPS and Jackpot game modes will look and feel, so really any feedback we can get is extremely appreciated.

Other large improvements we have been working on since our last post include:
- Refining the Coinflip game mode
- Site/user security
- Eliminating any bugs we could find
- Rock, Paper, Scissors & Jackpot game types (coming soon)
- Additional currency support (ETH, LTC, DOGE) (coming soon)

Again, we really appreciate any and all feedback from others!
Any further comments, critiques, or suggestions are valued and encouraged.

Best,
monk.gg

NOTE: We are currently only supporting, testnet Bitcoin. All 'bets' are done with testnet currency and have no actual worth.
