Background images setup
| Upload your desktop background image by clicking on the "+" icon in 'Background picture'.
To learn about the graphics specifications of the background image for this module, please refer to the "Game Design" section of this article.
You also have the option of adding a single background color that will surround your game pages - you can leave the basic color or choose to standardize your campaign with a color that reminds the users of your brand or game pages, for example. |
Game Settings
| Number of participation: set the number of participation per day, week, month, campaign or per user, then create and select your 'Already Played' page. If the users try to play again, they will be redirected to this page. We recommend to set up this parameter for 1 participation/day, in order to encourage the users to come back regularly on your campaign.
Winners uniqueness: this option allows you to choose the number of rewards that can potentially be won by the same user on your campaign, via the winning moment(s) it contains. See our dedicated article for more information.
Result Pages: set your 'Won' and 'Lost' pages: they will be displayed once the button has been clicked, and the page displayed will be depending if a reward has been distributed or not.
Percentage of the visible area: if you choose 50% for example, it means that your users will have to scratch 50% of the image to move to the result page. |
Customizing the appearance
| Scratch visual: the basic visual for your game that the user will have to scratch.
'Win visual' and 'Lose visual': The visual that will unfold as the user scratches the image, according to the result
Cursor appearance: if you add a visual, it will replace the mouse when the user scratches the visual. This gives you more opportunities to customize your campaign.
Type of particles: you can also activate various effects that will appear once the user is scratching the picture:
You can choose the particles color and the images that will appear and you can also customize the loading bar by clicking on "Advanced options" |
