Abstract

"This course covers user experience-focused approach to game interaction design. Created with the needs of aspiring game designers in mind, it’s course suitable for HCI and games students, educators and researchers looking for a deeper understanding of how players interact with video games and how these interactions impact player experience. With hundreds of universities worldwide offering digital media and game development programs, interactive technology is a fast-growing field of study. This course fills a much-needed gap in the CHI’s games and play community by connecting interaction design to fundamentals of user experience (UX) and general game design, addressing the needs of students and educators."
