I work in game development and I'm trying to create a concise label for my co-workers that will be used to mark all features and bugfixes that will make their way into the next release and affect the end user experience in a noticeable way.

So far I only came up with 'user-affecting' but I think there's a better way to call it. Suggestions?

    "User-facing", "frontend"?

  • user-visible behavior, user-level

  • call them priority 1, then call the other categories priority 2, etc. then you can make as many categories as you like, and someone will coin a name for them eventually.

If it's for internal works, the standard is just to label it "UX/UI" and be done with it. Short and memorable.

  • It does not necessarily have anything to do with UI. Besides, UI/UX is generally one of the main areas in game development. It's like labelling something 'Code' or 'Art'. Thing is, it could be a code task or an art task or a bugfix in our task tracker. I just need a concise label that people will use to denote that users will notice the effects of a given task once it makes its way into a release.

  • Yep, UX is the catch-all term that is getting more and more popular, especially in web designing and programming circles where this thing truly matters.

Changes that make your product better will in all likelihood increase your user approval rating. So the addition of features and bug fixes that 'affect the end user experience in a noticeable way' might usefully be labelled kudos enhancing (kudos - glory, fame, renown (OED)), because they will, in the final analysis, add to the kudos of your enterprise.
