More than Looking: Using Eye Movements Behind the Eyelids as a New Game Mechanic
summary
KryptonEyed is a prototype mini-game that forces players to close their eyes, roll them behind the eyelids and open to aim a gaze-triggered teleport; enemies are static, flee when looked at, or orbit, and a KryptoBoss ends the fast-paced finale. Two user studies show players can reliably perform the eye-roll teleport mechanic with measurable aiming variance based on roll direction, travel distance and target motion. Design includes three escalating levels and a rest mechanic where closing eyes restores power, suggesting KryptonEyed creates a viable new interaction space validated by two user studies.
