1. Knowing what you know about today’s video games, imagine what it would look like if you had to create a modern-day version of a classic video game like Space Invaders, Pac-Man, or Pong. First, evaluate the basic gameplay of Space Invaders. Then, describe how you would modernize it. What new goals, rules, and/or challenges would you incorporate or modify in order to enhance the player experience? And, if you had to incorporate one of the new and innovative gaming technologies, which would you select and why? One of the new things I would add to space invaders is to make it so that if you kill a certain number of enemies in a row without taking damage it would reward you a lot. I think this would really help good players be even greater. 2. Think of a game you played that was fun but still had complicated rules. What was it about that game that allowed you to enjoy it despite the playability challenge? Was the game highly playable despite the complicated rules? One of my favorite games of all time is Magic The Gathering. The rules of the game are incredibly complex but that is what makes the game great. Because of the complexity of the rules there are a lot of options and potential for great things within that rule set. 3. What does player immersion mean to you? What’s an example of a highly immersive game you played, and what about the game made it so immersive? For example, was it because of the plot, the visuals, the music, the game mechanics, the challenge? Player Immersion is when I feel like I am truly in the world I am playing in. One of the best games at doing this in my opinions is Subnautica. It does this by just having one of the best atmospheres of any game I have ever played with the music, graphics, visuals, and gameplay all working together wonderfully. 4. Think of a game (video game or board game) you’ve enjoyed playing recently. Explain how that game would appeal to any two of the four player types in Bartle’s Taxonomy: Killers, Achievers, Explorers, or Socializers. One Video game I have enjoyed recently is Elden Ring. Elden Ring would appeal to both the explorers and Killers of the Bartle’s Taxonomy. It appeals to the explorers because it a beautiful open world game with lots to explore. It appeals to the killers because there are tons of enemies and stuff to fight that are incredibly complex and difficult to beat. 5. What hardware and peripherals are you using right now to take this course? What software and operating system (OS)? Describe the basic details of how the things you write for this course are sent through the internet, including the role of packets, an ISP, and a server. I am using a laptop, that is hooked up to a monitor. I am also using a keyboard, a mouse, and a headset. I am using the Window’s Operating system as well as many different software applications.
