SUMMARY:GGJ Workshop: D&D Game Design Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Most video games have a story: not only Role-playing games. In this workshop\, we will approach story building and game design to maximize engagement for players\, and simplify the design of a video game’s mechanics. To do this\, Professor Carla Heggie and Dr. Christian Blouin will draw from experience designing and playing table-top role playing games. They will also approach this from a player’s perspective\, especially on how player finding gamey loopholes can break immersion. Unlike a tabletop game where players aren’t trying to break a game\, the rules are really different for a video game.  \n📅 Date: January 20\, 2025\n⏰ Time: 5:00PM-6:00PM\n📌 Location: Goldberg Computer Science Building\, Room 430\n✍️ Register Here: https://bit.ly/shiftkey-events\n\nPlease note: This workshop is available to everyone\, whether they have signed up for Global Game Jam or not!
