Editor's Notes

  1. The Future of UX is Play The 4 Keys to Fun, Emotion, and User Engagement Nicole Lazzaro, XEODesign, Inc. Visit the average workplace and if it were a zoo the humane society would protest! The environment and organizational principals fail to provide the basic mental furniture for workers to focus attention, motivate, collaborate, and to accomplish. No wonder so many struggle with getting things done. Likewise most user experiences fail by ignoring the same simple fact. Human&apos;s require emotions to decide. Since 1848 and the case of Phineas Gage [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phineas_Gage] we&apos;ve known that emotion is the thinking mind&apos;s silent partner in every decision it makes. Yet, usability targets only one emotion, frustration, and then only to reduce it. Where does UX enhance the sense of accomplishment to reward users for their hard work? Games harness emotion and other human factors to create just such self motivating systems. Ready for life as a game? From farming games on Facebook to Four Square check ins on Twitter games are a powerful force for driving traffic, shaping user behavior, and creating engagement. However, adding points and awarding badges are only part of the story. Based on XEODesign&apos;s 18 years of research on why we play games [http://xeodesign.com/whyweplaygames.html], it&apos;s the emotions that games create from interaction that drive hundreds of hours of play. The Four Keys to Fun is a proven framework from XEODesign&apos;s research that Nicole Lazzaro used to create Tilt, the first iPhone accelerometer game with Joe Hewitt at iPhoneDevCamp. By recreating the iPhone&apos;s emotion profile to come from the interaction of the game, Tilt attracted 250,000 visits in a few months, and it&apos;s successor Tilt HD: Flip&apos;s Adventure in 1.5 Dimensions was a #1 Free App on the iPad. [http://TiltWorld.com/buy_tilt.html] (iPhone version coming soon.) The future of UX are designs that employ emotions to guide attention, improve memory, enhance performance, and reward users for a job well done. Master these four techniques to paint attention onto a UI like Velcro and color it with emotions that best match the product, brand, or task at hand. Come join us to see how game design can unlock human potential and improve quality of life through play! ....................................................
  2. Designed Tilt the first Accelerometer game for the iPhone with Joe Hewitt at iPhoneDevCamp A top Hack for the iPhone Wired Magazine 2007
  3. Tilt HD #1 free iPad App in several countries, #3 in US
  4. Player Driven Design I am here to help you use emotion to do your job of interaction design better. Not just add fun in a general since. For too long user interface designers have focused on serious sounding quality metrics and ignored those that involve play. Play is integral to many things we do as humans. It&apos;s a vital ingredient in learning. The interfaces we design shape interaction and as a result the emotions that people feel. Designs create emotional experiences whether we intend to or not. This is how games create their stickiness.
  5. Emotion is Cognition’s Silent Partner Experience design needs to address both Where to get emotional design? Where else better than the interactive entertainment of play Phineas Gage http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phineas_Gage
  6. Because of this we needed new tools to explore what made games so fun Not just making it easier! To create an experience you need to make it more fun! It became clear to me that Interaction Design only focused on one thing UX - controls how to play PX - choice how to have fun. How player interaction creates emotion How the feet attach to the peddles to the chain and the rear wheel make the thing go The front wheel is for steering where the fun is Together work so well together that the player soon forgets they are there
  7. I define Player Experience to mean how player interaction creates emotion What do I mean by the future of user experience is play? Go into the average workplace and the humane society would protest. The environment and tools are so ill suited tasks at hand the work that needs to be done.
  8. Emotions help people Focus (Doom iPhone) Remember (Sim’s bathroom) Decide (DinerDash Angry) Perform (Katamari / Battlefield) Learn (Brain Age)
  9. What I discovered was 4 things that players like to do best. Each key uses interaction design to unlock a different set of emotions Each key is a style of play (set of features) that unlocks different emotions Hard Fun Key Unlocks Frustration and the Feeling of winning Easy Fun Key Unlocks Curiosity Wonder and Surprise Serious Fun Key Unlocks Relaxation, Excitement, Sensation of Learning, and Expressing Values People Fun Key Unlocks Amusement, Naches, Amici
  10. Then I had to ask the question Wouldn’t it be cool if we could… Use the choices players make in game and apply them to create engagement and paint the interface with any emotion
  11. New Approach to Interaction Design Paint UI with attention like velcro and color it with any emotion that you choose to match a brand or the task at hand. We looked at what create emotion in players and mapped that to what they liked the most about games. There are seven emotions in the face and more in the body. We look at these emotions and match them to game mechanics to hack the “what’s fun?” problem from the player’s perspective. Watching emotions as people play we find that emotions are fluid and braided over time, one emotion blending into the next. Turns out that by watching people play there are over 30 emotions that come from the choices that players make in games. Designers who understand the relationship between their game mechanics and these emotions can craft these emotions as early as the concept stage rather than waiting for the end of design or even production where changes are harder to make. At XEODesign we can track how players really react to the game in context. These models can be used to diagnose problems in the player experience and connect strong emotions with the game design and not leave them up to chance.
  12. The 4 Fun Keys is a PX model for how games create the emotions people most like. Game designers cannot design the emotions that players feel directly. Instead they design the mechanics that offer players choices (in the center of the diagram). It is in the making of these choices that players feel the emotions coming from gameplay. It is this new way of creating emotion that separates games from other media. What is most important here is designing the center to create emotion in at least 3 of the 4 quadrants. Turns out that by watching people play there are over 30 emotions that come from the choices that players make in games. Designers who understand the relationship between their game mechanics and these emotions can craft these emotions as early as the concept stage rather than waiting for the end of design or even production where changes are harder to make. At XEODesign we can track how players really react to the game in context. We looked at what create emotion in players and mapped that to what they liked the most about games. There are seven emotions in the face and more in the body. We look at these emotions and match them to game mechanics to hack the “what’s fun?” problem from the player’s perspective. Watching emotions as people play we find that emotions are fluid and braided over time, one emotion blending into the next. We’ve taken this emotional response analysis and developed player experience models or PX to map out the relationship between player and choice. These models can be used to diagnose problems in the player experience and connect strong emotions with the game design and not leave them up to chance as we have here. There isn’t a language for many of these emotions or how to create them. Where required I will use the language we use at XEO to describe how players react to their favorite parts of games.
  13. We used Paul Ekman’s Facial Action Coding, simplified it for games, and measured 7 emotions in the face, other emotions in the body. For example are there one, two, or three images of a player enjoying Star Wars Galaxies here?
  14. There’s only one true enjoyment, not because we can see the teeth. Instead it’s the Obicularis Oculi that shows true enjoyment.
  15. Enjoyment has many vectors not tracked by traditional approaches such as reducing time on task, reducing difficulty, reduce error rates My favorite player quote of all time illustrates what it means to enjoy Hard Fun. “ It’s easy to tell what games my husband enjoys the most. If he screams, ‘I hate it, I hate it, I hate it!’ Then I know two things: a. he’s going to finish it, b. he’s going to buy version two. If doesn’t say this, he’s going to put it down after a couple of hours.” Now that’s a hard core gamer playing for Hard Fun.
  16. Let’s look at how the future of work Hard Fun Offers the Opportunity for Challenge and Mastery Unlike usability, challenge and frustration makes games fun. Can’t just go from point A to point B. Need to have some challenge to overcome make games fun.
  17. Basket ball is fun because the hoop is small and high/ Games focus attention with a goal and some constraints. Mastering these systems is a big part of what makes games fun. Games need the perfect balance between difficulty and player skill. Hard Fun is the balance between difficulty and skill. First drawn by Csikszentmihalyi we’ve added additional emotions and mechanics involved in engagement through structuring attention through goals. Let’s look into how games create Hard Fun and more emotions like Fiero* for players. * Fiero is the feeling of winning, Italian
  18. Fiero, The feeling of winning looks like this.
  19. It is easy to over apply Hard Fun Rewarding one behavior can cause unexpected consequences On Twitter people game the score to increase the number of followers. Following that many people creates a very noisy stream of tweets very spammy and makes it hard to follow. This unbalances the game. The List feature helps, but more needs to be done (such as set a default list to view on home page)
  20. One of the things that makes Mint so popular is that it simplifies the world, provides clear goals, and amplifies feedback
  21. Let’s look into how games create Hard Fun and more emotions like Fiero* for players. Hard Fun: Emotions about choices from mechanics in the game. Emotions about choices made in the game. Several game features and mechanics enhance a player’s sense of Fiero and progress in the game. Hard Fun is the perfect balance of player skill with game difficulty. If the game is too easy the player quits because they are bored. If the game is too hard players quit because they are too frustrated. On the right are the choices and emotions players feel from the Hard Fun activities in a game, such as working towards a goal or scoring points. I first knew we were on to something new when I started seeing patterns in game players not predicted by Csikszentmihalyi’s model of Flow. First of all, emotional states for good games had to vary over time, not just get harder. So we added a wiggly line. Secondly, we saw a lot more emotions than boredom and frustration (anxiety). For example for Fiero to occur players had to become so frustrated that they were about ready to quit. To get Fiero, the player must succeed just when they are on the verge of quitting. When they achieve at that point they experience a huge phase shift in the body from feeling very bad to feeling very good. This enhances the positive elative feelings of Fiero. Players enjoyed alternating between Hard Fun and Easy Fun (definition coming up) to prevent becoming too frustrated or to motivate the next round of challenges. *Fiero is Italian word for “Personal triumph over adversity.” We don’t have a word in English for it, or an emoticon. o/

  25. Too easy and repetitive and the task becomes boring. Visualizing the challenges faces and over coming them
  26. Easy Fun: Inspire Exploration and Roleplay Adding curves makes game more fun. In Grand Theft Auto players not only complete missions, while driving from point A to B the game offers things like plate glass windows, freeway exit ramps, parking meters. Like Improve theater players can throw all their Sims in the pools and pull out the ladders to see what happens. In Basketball it’s fun to dribble the ball, shoot hoops without keeping score, pretend you’re a Harlem Globe Trotter and do tricks.
  27. Feedback systems that create curiosty, wonder, and surprise. Combination of a Bubble Wrap, Wiimote and Fantasy Island

Often the controls are a pure joy to use and create emotions like curiosity, wonder and surprise. Such as the motion here in Tilt. Player feedback whether it’s torturing one’s Sims, driving the race track backwards, or simply using the controls
  33. Easy Fun: Best selling games offer interactions outside the main challenge to inspire player imagination and capture their attention in between challenges. Thse opportunities for fantasy exploration and role play increase immersion into the game world and offer a refreshing alternative to the emotions from Hard Fun. Players often self regulate when the challenge becomes too hard by switching from Hard Fun activities to Easy Fun such as goofing off inside the game, off track play, or exploring what Will Wright calls “interesting failure states.” Like Improv Theater games such as Grand Theft Auto make offers to the player. To get from point A to point B in a mission the game offers the player a car, in fact any car they want and then other things such as parking meters, plate glass windows, freeway exit ramps. The game leaves it up to the player to explore how the two interact.

And even do real work such as this carpet sweeper designed by IDEO one of my favorite product design companies. The Swiffer and Bejeweled, by PopCap, are essentially the same game. Collect all you can with features that provide enhanced sense of progress and reward. In Bejeweled for $6 you can collect all the free diamonds, rubies, and saphires that you want. And for 99 cents you can get as many iPhone apps as they can This iPhone takes advantage of these collection and completion mechanics.
  40. More than points and money Players value how players feel before, during, and after play. Players of our game Tilt tell us that they enjoy the lack of violence and the environmental theme. They like the educational value and the opportunity to spend time in activities that express and reinforce their values. In our Earth Day TiltMOB challenge we collected 350,000 points by thousands of players simply playing a few levels.

People Fun: Excuse for social interaction whether it’s demoing apps for friends, petting gestures on the iPhone, People Plant and Pet Games such as Farmville all create social interaction to create bonding and social emotion. For example my sister can say the word Mango and I’m on the floor laughing. When I can breathe again we feel closer. I’m sure you all have examples of this. Why? It’s an inside joke and creates social grouping. Between my sister an I the word “Mango” is a Social Token Social Token symbolic in nature that increases in value with use. Social capital as a term should die. FB like and iPhone
  49. People Plant Pet games All bring out these social emotions For Tilt we will be running a study to compare the effect of character art What are other ways to increase the friendly feeling? Round Small cute
  50. Playing together on the Wii creates emotions. Moving together is enjoyment as is teasing each other.
  51. Offering choices in these 4 quadrants provides more emotions and increases the enjoyment of the game for more people For our purposes today lets narrow this down to People Fun, which is where most of the emotions between players occur. These social emotions often require two people. It these kinds of social interaction also increases the bonds between people. If we look at what choices create the emotions seen between players the Player Experience Profile or PX Profile includes game mechanics such as cooperation, competition, and the opportunity to perform and to personalize. These choices create emotions such as schadenfreude, naches, and amusement between players. How expand emotion by offering the right kind of choices.

  56. What Players buy * Gifts * Weapons * Personal These create the most emotion In the game Maple Story (published by Nexon), it is the social value that justifies someone spending $5 for colored contact lenses for their avatar or additional emotes. There are a lot of design decisions used to support enjoying the game more in this way. == References == --- Maple Story, Nexon http://www.mcvuk.com/press-releases/32203/MapleStoryndash-Game-Currencies-And-Cash-Shop-Explained The Cash Shop � Spending NEXON Cash MapleStory offers those players looking to stand out in the online crowd everything from the latest fashions in clothing, hair salon coupons to plastic surgery coupons and other appearance-altering items � all of which can be purchased from the Cash Shop.

  57. Been thinking a lot of games for past 20 years Some of findings that shaped my current thinking. Games are Self-motivating systems
  58. My point here is that the future of experience design is play Many experiences of high value, may not be useful at all. Consider on your next design project how you can craft experience by choosing the appropriate feature to create an emotion to match a brand and the task at hand. Player Experience is how player interaction creates emotion
  59. In closing Design interaction to paint UI with attention like velcro and color it with any emotion that you choose to match a brand or the task at hand. I want you to join with me and collaborate to fill out the emotions from play. Go to work next week and think about the emotion that surrounds the next feature you design. Join with me to unlock human potential and improve quality of life through play. Craft emotions to help people Focus attention Remember Decide Perform Learn Imagine everyone going to work with an expectation of fun. http://www.greatdanepro.com/Blue%20Bueaty/index.htm
  60. The 4 Fun Keys is a PX model for how games create the emotions people most like. Game designers cannot design the emotions that players feel directly. Instead they design the mechanics that offer players choices (in the center of the diagram). It is in the making of these choices that players feel the emotions coming from gameplay. It is this new way of creating emotion that separates games from other media. What is most important here is designing the center to create emotion in at least 3 of the 4 quadrants. Turns out that by watching people play there are over 30 emotions that come from the choices that players make in games. Designers who understand the relationship between their game mechanics and these emotions can craft these emotions as early as the concept stage rather than waiting for the end of design or even production where changes are harder to make. At XEODesign we can track how players really react to the game in context. We looked at what create emotion in players and mapped that to what they liked the most about games. There are seven emotions in the face and more in the body. We look at these emotions and match them to game mechanics to hack the “what’s fun?” problem from the player’s perspective. Watching emotions as people play we find that emotions are fluid and braided over time, one emotion blending into the next. We’ve taken this emotional response analysis and developed player experience models or PX to map out the relationship between player and choice. These models can be used to diagnose problems in the player experience and connect strong emotions with the game design and not leave them up to chance as we have here. There isn’t a language for many of these emotions or how to create them. Where required I will use the language we use at XEO to describe how players react to their favorite parts of games.
