#chiplay — Public Fediverse posts

CHI PLAY 2026 is taking place in York, England! Fun fact: York was founded by the Romans around 2000 years ago, then became a Viking city and still has a medieval center surrounded by defensive walls.

We are looking forward to seeing you there!

Hey #CHIPLAY and #CHI games people:
I know that when mentioning games, we should add a reference for them. However, what if participants mention games? Do we add a reference for them as well? What if there is an ambiguity what game was meant?
Is there some official guideline for that?

#CHIPlay in the Halloween spirit by adding a ghostly echo to the speakers

My #CHIPlay paper with @elisamekler is out:

Are games that are a bit "off" or slightly "broken" always bad? Online discussion suggests players can really appreciate "janky" games.

We think understanding the appeal of jank can help us understand player experience more broadly.
We think jank might tell us about how aesthetic experiences function in games, and about factors that support reflection and awareness.

📢 📢 PREPRINT KLAXXON📢📢
Presented at #CHIPlay later this year.

“I’m the leader and I’m going to save the world”:
Characterizing Empowering and Disempowering Game
Experiences
(https://osf.io/yt476).

Is "empowering" the player always the highest imperative?
Beyond a nice resonant word, what does empowerment actually mean to players?
What about disempowerment?
What does any of this feel like?

@VornhagenJB decided to find out.
Helped out by @elisamekler, Dooley Murphy, and myself.

New publication with @dan_bennett, Dooley Murphy, and @elisamekler!
“I’m the leader and I’m going to save the world”:
Characterizing Empowering and Disempowering Game
Experiences (https://osf.io/yt476).

We look the #PlayerExperience of empowerment and disempowerment in videogames.
Looking forward to present it at #CHIPlay later this year.

Okay, I had very few opportunities to post today, but the poster session went well for us! Thank you #CHI2023 for the questions and discussions! 😀

Now I'm sitting in my last session for the day, "Player Experience". I saw so little games and gaming stuff in the program, I wonder if that has now mostly moved to more specialized venues like #CHIPlay?

The #chiplay2023 🎮 CfPs for Works in Progress, Interactivity, Student Game Design Competition, Perspectives on Play, Doctoral Consortium, and Connections are now online! ✨
