GVU Brownbag: "Expanding
the Horizons of Game Design" -- 3/4/2004
Michael Mateas
and EGL students Nolan Lichti, Brian Hochhalter, Heather Logas
and Danny Muller shared recent EGL activities with Georgia
Tech's Graphics, Visualization and Usability group.
Abstract from the
brownbag description:
Four IDT students are working on separate game-related thesis
projects that are attempting to broaden the horizons of the
video and
computer gaming world. These projects are experimenting with
strategy, role-playing and relationship-based games and looking
for
ways to improve or augment these genres. Since the computer
and video
game industry has been looking for ways to expand beyond its
traditional base, these student projects offer examples of
what might
be done to provide new options to the casual gamer and how
to bring
more depth and variety to the gaming experience.
