Tour guide for an alien
The alien tour guide explains to the confused alien that a baseball game is occurring in the stadium below. The guide proceeds to answer 5 questions from the alien to describe the game and human behaviors around sports. The guide explains that a game is a conflict between opponents following rules, there are no female players due to separate sports leagues, and fans feel passionate because sports build community around their team. A team works together to defeat opponents, and spectators cannot join the players on the field because they are professionals requiring skill. Thinking like an alien tour guide forces deeper consideration of human values and assumptions around competition and community in sports.
Tour guide for alien
Games are a form of human competition where individuals or groups display dominance over others through scores or preventing further play. Men traditionally play against each other because they feel using full strength against women could hurt them, despite women being equally capable. Humans enjoy games as they satisfy competitive instincts and allow participation in winning groups, demonstrating power and control.
A gamer’s true self
This document discusses research into why gamers create the avatars they do in video games. Studies have shown that avatar creation taps into our subconscious desires and reveals aspects of our psychological self or how we want to present ourselves. Gamers are able to freely express themselves through avatars, often using them to escape reality. Several articles examine the psychology behind avatar choices and how they relate to gamers' personalities, behaviors, and emotional and mental states.

The document discusses five categories of appeals that games use to attract different types of players: accomplishment, imagination, socialization, recreation, and subversion. It provides examples of each category and explains the psychological motivations they aim to satisfy, such as success, pretend play, social connection, stress relief, and rebelliousness. Accomplishment appeals include completion and perfection, while imagination appeals involve storytelling and roleplaying. Socialization appeals incorporate cooperation and generosity between players. Recreation appeals offer mood and thought management through relaxation and contemplation. Finally, subversion appeals tap into provocation and rule-breaking within games.
Without vision, you'd be blind - Mattia Traverso - Codemotion Amsterdam 2017
In game design, we trust our senses. Is this mechanic fun? Is this Environment beautiful? Is this story emotional? Is the game GOOD? However, as time passes and our project evolves, so do we. We are not the same person we were a minute ago, a month ago, a year ago. How can we maintain a steady vision if we ourselves are a constantly changing, complex interlacing of feelings and ideas? A practical look at how to establish a strong identity for a project: the beacon which will lead future decisions in design, art and production.

LAFS Game Design 1 - Dramatic Elements
This document provides guidance on developing game narratives. It recommends defining the desired player experience first before creating the story. Key elements to consider include challenge, theme, premise, characters, and story structure. Challenge should be dynamic based on player skill. Theme sets the context while premise establishes the goal. Characters should have agency for the player and potential for empathy. Story can emerge from gameplay rather than a predetermined structure. The goal is an uncertain outcome resolved by player actions rather than a traditional authored conclusion.

My high level document
This document provides a high-level overview and design for a proposed 2-on-2 street football video game. The game would be played from a first-person perspective as players compete to win matches and advance in a tournament. Players could select teams made up of different character types, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. The gameplay would blend elements of sports games and fighting games, with players using fighting-style moves alongside basic football plays to score points and defeat opponents. The target audience is sports arcade gamers looking for something new, with the game envisioned for the Sega Genesis or Super Nintendo platforms.
Antaragni 2013 Sports Quiz Prelims
The document contains questions and information about various sports personalities and events. It includes questions about Colonel Homi Motivala, Pankaj Gupta and his role in Indian hockey, an all-round cricket player with a 100% test match win record who later coached Kenya, and information about Louis van Gaal dropping his pants in front of players to demonstrate his authority as manager.
Game mechanics-puzzles (NielsQuinten)
Game mechanics are methods that agents (players and NPCs) use to interact with and change the game state. They include actions like shooting, jumping, and turning. Game rules provide the framework for how game mechanics can be used, for example allowing a chess piece to move but not allowing two pieces to occupy the same space. Good game balance considers factors like fairness between players, an appropriate challenge level for players, meaningful choices, the right mix of skill and chance, and freedom versus control. Well-designed puzzles have goals that are clear, allow progress to be seen, seem solvable, and gradually increase in difficulty.

1) The document discusses a diary study examining the relationship between playing computer games and recovery from work.
2) The study found that playing competitive computer games in the evening was associated with lower energy levels the next morning and less flow at work during the day, while cooperative games were not.
3) The conclusions were that competitive games may deplete energy resources due to requiring effort, while cooperative games provide opportunities for recovery and maintaining flow through social interaction and feeling good by helping others in the game.
The Importance of the Player in Game Design
This document discusses player modeling and profiling in game design. It outlines several models for classifying players, including Bartle's player types (achievers, explorers, socializers, killers), hardcore vs casual players, and BrainHex player classes (seeker, survivor, daredevil, etc.). The key points are that players have different motivations, needs, and play styles; understanding the target audience is crucial for game design; and multiple player profiles should be considered to account for differences between individuals. Selecting the right target audience helps ensure a game provides the desired experience.
2. research (interactive)(2)
This document reviews existing endless runner games that are similar to the product being developed. Temple Run and Jetpack Joyride are discussed as examples that involve controlling a character to collect coins while dodging obstacles as they run. Common features identified are using the third-person perspective to see the character and environment, collecting coins to score points, and avoiding moving obstacles. Aspects to include are coin grabbing, a variety of obstacles, and running to keep the game exciting. The target audience is identified as male mobile players ages 7-16, with content like cool pixelated imagery and snowboarding to appeal to them.

The document identifies four keys to creating emotion in games without relying on cutscenes or explicit storytelling:
1. Hard Fun - Generating emotions like frustration and accomplishment through meaningful challenges, strategies, and puzzles.
2. Easy Fun - Grabbing attention through ambiguity, incompleteness, and detail to create emotions like wonder and mystery.
3. Altered States - Stimulating senses and behaviors to produce emotions like excitement and relief from changes in mental state.
4. The People Factor - Enabling social experiences through competition, cooperation and spectacle to create emotions like amusement and schadenfreude.

Unverisal Game Model
This document discusses common elements in video games that keep players engaged. It begins by asking why players can't put games down and why they get better as they play. It then discusses common goals players want to achieve in games, obstacles that impede progress, and tools players use to overcome obstacles. The document also covers the ability to fail and try again through mechanics like extra lives and health bars. It explains how gameplay leads to learning skills that transfer between similar games. In the end, it discusses how games create a balance between failure and success loops to teach players through mistakes in a way that keeps them progressing.
Game List
The document lists over 50 classic and notable video games from 1990 to 2011, ranging from early PC games like Monuments of Mars and Commander Keen to 3D action-adventure games like Tomb Raider, Deus Ex, and Mass Effect. Many of the listed games were pioneering and influential titles that helped define genres like first-person shooters and role-playing games.

Game interfaces use symbols to convey important information to players without overloading them. Symbols represent concepts and help the brain make sense of visual information. Effective interfaces have simplistic but informative designs that allow plenty of viewing space and do not overwhelm players. They also use avatars as characters that players control and which they can personalize to be memorable representations of themselves.
Level 3
This document provides information about computer programming concepts like variables, operators, conditional statements, and flowcharts. It discusses true and false values, integer and string variable types, relational operators like greater than and less than, and conditional statements using if/then/else. It also gives examples of flowcharts for simple dice games, including rules for taking or losing tokens depending on dice rolls.
