As an industry we have a tendency to go after "the next big thing", often all at once. Whether it be certain game genres or business models, a wide open space on the market can quickly become crowded as a result. Using a decade of experience, Susana will discuss how Paradox Interactive made the decision to tackle publishing and digital distribution early on. Why everyone told them they were crazy to do so, what they did to use their early success to support Paradox's core values, and why doubling down on those values helps the company push forward today. As customary in a Paradox session, you'll hear about lessons learned along the way but also why some of the same strategies and approach to problems still helps the company stay competitive today.

The toolbox approach to f2 p design nicholas lovell

Mary Chan

While the fundamentals of free-to-play game design seem simple, adapting to this model and understanding it to the depth required to make a successful game has proved a tough challenge even for the most experienced game creators. One effective way to tackle F2P design is to think of its various techniques as a "toolbox"; by building up a collection of design "tools" which you can use to acquire, retain and monetise your players, you can build a comprehensive understanding of how this new business model interacts with your existing game design talents. This lecture will give you concrete examples of F2P "tools" which you can apply to your design, and show you how to create your own tool-based approach.

What interior design teaches us about environment art dan cox

Mary Chan

This talk will discuss the parallels between interior design techniques and level art and design. Interior designers create spaces which inform people to the function and aesthetics of a space, just as we do in game development. We will examine how interior designers and environment artists are alike, the rules found in interior design, and why they are used. We will then explore how these rules can be applied in modern game spaces and the ways they can change our visual storytelling tool sets.

Using lessons learned from working on AAA 2D games, a 4-strong indie team set out to create a complete pipeline for creating modern 2D games with an organic feel and a high level of polish... on indie-scale resources. The tools and techniques developed to reach that ambitious goal will be presented, from the innovative animation system, the terrain, vegetation and level art system, to the effective but powerful rendering model, and more. Intended audience & prerequisites: Anyone working on a 2D game: programmers, animators, level designers, level artists. The talk will be of particular interest to teams using Unity, but rather than being purely technical, the talk will outline principles that can be applied in any engine. Session takeaway: I believe 2D has a great future ahead of her, and that we can do much more with it. I intend to demonstrate how to improve the production pipeline, and invest in tools to become more technical the way 3D does, while retaining the unique advantages of 2D.

Mary Chan

Stefan has spent many nights debugging hard-to-find bugs. Memory overwrites leading to random crashes, well-hidden stack overflows and other atrocities that will eventually give each programmer nightmares. In this talk, Stefan shares tips and tricks how to identify the root cause of such problems and how to debug them with little or no help from a debugger. He will also go into detail about which memory management techniques can be applied in order to prevent some of those bugs in the first place. Readers will learn techniques that help with finding and identifying problems that are due to the low-level access granted by C++ and the sometimes careless use of pointers. The presented techniques are applicable to the PC as well as console platforms.

I took up blogging at the suggestion of my friend Cory Doctorow when my job responsibilities had been whittled down to five minutes of actual work per day. What started as a way to break out of boredom turned out to be a life-changer: I made many new friends, got a couple of TV appearances, landed a couple of jobs, met my wife and even dodged a bullet. In this presentation, I'll regale you with stories about how I made my life better through blogging, share what I've learned over the past seven years and give you some tips and tricks that I've found useful. And yes, there will be prizes and a rock and roll accordion performance, too!

Thousands of NPC are displayed in the streets of revolutionary Paris, player can seamlessly enter and exit buildings, experiment realistic crowd ecosystem reactions, while the real scale we used for every building allow a real city size where everything looks real. Immersion is at maximum. But how can we provide fun through this feeling of realism ? Is there still a place for simple and accessible gameplay in this living and breathing world ? This talk will explain what we did in ACU, which choices we made between gameplay, immersion, art, story, world size and player freedom to create a deeper experience and merge between gameplay and exploration.

Controlling chaos designing compelling combat in action games adam bormann

Mary Chan

In real life, combat is unpredictable and chaotic. If games tried to realistically model combat, it would create random-feeling combat, and wouldn’t be very much fun, and far too difficult. In action games, we use systems and design principles to create scenarios were we can control the chaos, and teach the player to predict what may happen. Once they feel comfortable, the player can start playing the game intentionally; understanding the choices they are making, and anticipating what challenges the designers might throw at them next. Once the player understands how to make meaningful choices in a combat experience, your game can become an engaging and compelling experience. We will look at decisions designers often make about weapons, player abilities, cameras, combat intensity and difficulty, enemy design and patterns and see how these choices affect a player’s experience and enjoyment. By examining how designers can clearly communicate the options the player has and whether or not they chose the right option, we can learn about how the player and the designers have a dialogue through the game. Players who understand the choices that they are making in combat, can predict probable outcomes, and aren’t overwhelmed by the chaos of the game will be more engaged and will have more fun, even when the game is challenging.

Desire and obstacle the building blocks of gaming narratives susan o'connor

Mary Chan

Humans are born storytellers. We use them to understand our world — and in the gaming universe, stories can become our guides. But players don't want to hear a story - they want to create a story. How can we build narratives that allow players freedom of choice — but still deliver a meaningful, emotional experience? The answer is desire — and obstacle. By developing an understanding what the player wants from the game — and then building a storyline that fuels that desire — game developers can create an experience that connects with players and inspires them to keep playing until the final level.

The rendering technology of 'lords of the fallen' philip hammer

Mary Chan

This session is about some important aspects of the rendering pipeline of the upcoming Action-RPG "Lords of the Fallen", developed by Deck13 Interactive and CI Games for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. The topic covers several closely related areas like the deferred rendering system, image-based lighting using deferred cubemaps, deferred decals, and an approach for transparent object lighting and shadowing. More specifically, the lecture will cover several strategies to keep the G-Buffer as small and efficient as possible. This includes the description of a G-Buffer attribute-packing scheme and how per-material attributes can be exposed using special parameter lookup tables. Furthermore, a traditional problem of most deferred rendering systems is the seamless integration of transparent objects into the lighting. The lecture will present several ways to approach this problem, for example multi-pass deferred rendering, coloured transparent shadows, and a novel method for deferred particle lighting.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support

Alan Dix

Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024 https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/ As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management. The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM). Speakers: Bob Boule Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.
