About this model

This diagram represents a computational model of the hyper-casual game "Stack Jump" focusing on jump mechanics and scoring. The setup of the diagram simulates the conditions for successful jumps, differentiates between normal and perfect jumps, and tracks failures, indicating game over situations. The model employs sources to initiate jumps and gates to distribute outcomes randomly, reflecting the game's mechanic where a jump can either be normal, perfect, or a fail. Pools collect the outcomes of these jumps - with separate pools for normal jumps, perfect jumps, and fails, illustrating how different types of jumps contribute differently to the game's state. Registers calculate scores, taking into account the number of successful jumps and the impact of consecutive perfect jumps on the score. The model is designed to simulate the game over condition when a jump fails, effectively ending the session. This dynamic computational graph underscores the probabilistic nature of game events and the scoring mechanism, showcasing how resources (representing jumps) flow through the system and how the game state changes over time based on player actions and game mechanics.

You can open the original diagram in the Machinations app, press Play to watch how resources move through it, and change its values to see how the system responds. Machinations is a visual tool for designing, simulating and balancing game economies and other systems, where resources flow through sources, pools, drains, converters and gates. In a diagram, a source creates resources, a pool stores them, a drain removes them, a converter changes one resource into another and a gate decides where they go next.
