Playful Process – Designing Ethical Games and Interaction
summary
Panel documents concrete tools and pilots: an eight‑city game jam and student prototypes (due Monday) that target complex emotions like pity, jealousy and trust, a commercial SDK called Character Engine and an anti‑harassment product Ally that trains classifiers with diverse playtests, and a biofeedback title Nevermind using wearables and facial coding but discarding emotion data. Practices include MDA and transformational frameworks, diary studies for long‑term effects, and a forthcoming book Emotionally Intelligent Design.
