EMOTION-CENTRIC DESIGN: COMBATING CLIMATE CHANGE NIHILISM

该项目将探索情感在说服性游戏中的作用以及持久行为改变的潜力，旨在影响对气候变化的反思，行动和行动主义的社会和政治态度。迭代设计方法将探索玩家对有目的开发的游戏体验的反应。建立游戏设计策略和战术，为玩家唤起情感复杂，发人深省和潜在的变革时刻。这项研究将探讨最能作为反思气候变化不作为的工具的讲故事、技巧、修辞和美学。有前途的设计方法将被深入探讨，以创建和建立一个工具包的最佳方法，设计游戏中的说服力时刻。最终在拯救地球方面发挥作用，这样我们就可以拯救游戏。

The project will explore the role of emotion in persuasive games and the potential for lasting behavioural change with the aim to influence social and political attitudes toward climate change reflection, action and activism. An iterative design approach will explore player responses to purposefully developed play experiences. Establishing the game design strategies and tactics to evoke emotionally complex, thought-provoking and potentially transformative moments for players. The study will explore storytelling, mechanics, rhetoric and aesthetics that best act as tools for reflection on climate change inaction. Promising design methods will be explored in-depth to create and establish a toolkit of the best approaches for designing persuasive moments in games. Ultimately to play a part in saving the planet, so we can save games.
