As we refine the narrative, the focus has been on how player decisions impact the story, particularly concerning interactions with various animal characters. Key Design Decisions Discussed:Cutscene Implementation: Carlos suggested that we should…

Advancing the Interactive Experience In our journey to create an immersive narrative experience, we’ve reached a critical juncture where player decisions significantly shape the unfolding story. Each choice not only influences immediate outcomes but also sets the stage for future consequences, adding depth and complexity to the gameplay. Addressing the Consequences of Ignoring Characters A…

What We DidIn our most recent endeavor at the intersection of virtual reality and user experience research, we conducted an in-depth survey to gather comprehensive data on the preferences and habits of VR users. This testing was pivotal in understanding not just what games people play, but how they interact with VR environments on a…

As part of our early research phase, we have developed a preliminary questionnaire to explore users’ connections with nature, emotions towards animals, and views on folklore and the supernatural.

Non-linear storytelling isn’t just about offering players choices but about crafting a narrative landscape that they can navigate in various ways,…

Background: The earth’s environment is getting worse and worse, and extreme weather is becoming more and more serious. Hot weather can be as high as 50 degrees Celsius, and cold weather can be as low as minus 50 degrees. Humans have built a protective shield in response to extreme weather, using technological thermostats to control…
