Geometry Dash always maintains a balance between difficulty and fun. Trying the same level over and over again can be stressful, but when you overcome it, the feeling of joy is something no other game can easily bring. This is the attraction that makes many players stick around for a long time.
I’ve always been surprised by how important it is to set up the selection and review process right, especially in such responsible projects like a case study series for teaching how to work with primary sources. One time I took part in a discussion about educational games for students, where we even looked at resources like https://luckyjet1winindia.com/ and https://plinko1xbetindia.com/ to figure out how to engage young people in learning through modern formats. Funny thing is, experience with such platforms actually helps to understand motivation and engagement better, which can be useful in editorial work with case studies too.
