Game Design Tomorrow:
- Know your players
- Inside out
- Measure game experience
- Design for new interactions
- Use player research data
- QA was yesterday
- Think outside the game!

What can we find out?
- Galvanic skin response
-- Arousal, stress
- EMG
-- Emotions
- EEG
-- Cognitive workload
-- Brain activity
- Eye Tracker
-- Visual attention

Measurements:
- In-game event logs
- Self-report questionnaires
- Facial EMG
- EEG (32 channels)
- Galvanic skin response
- Eye Tracker
- Heart Rate
- Video observation

Player Experience Research:
- Study player behavior in-game
- Data collection (events and context)
- psychophysiological (and eye tracking)
- self-reported
- video-recorded
- Benefits for Developers
- Conduct analysis of gameplay
- Detect and be able to fix design problems
- Unique insights into your audience

Game Interaction Devices:
- Human need for
- Physical movement
- Musical expression
- Haptic sensation
- Ideally combined with
- Psychophysiological logging
- Biofeedback in the game
- The game immediately responds to your body signals

Before Designing a Game
- How do you design challenge?
- Item and enemy placement
- Damage configuration
- Artificial Intelligence
- and more…
- Necessary to think about
- What interaction is possible?
- How will gameplay impact player emotion?
