Designing user interfaces for novel software systems can be challenging since the
usability preferences of the users are not well known. This thesis presents a
usability study conducted for the development of a user interface for game
developers to enter game specific information. By conducting usability testing, the
usability preferences of game developers were explored and the design was
shaped according to their needs. An assessment of the overall usability of the final
design is provided together with the main findings that include the usability
preferences and design recommendations. The results showed that the most
valuable usability preferences are quickness, error tolerance and the ability to
constantly inspect the entered information.
