    This article goes deep on the #gamedesign mechanics that make games feel addictive, and their ethical implications.

    I've explored these topics in the context of #instructionaldesign and #gamification where they affect #motivation, #persistence with hard tasks, and #grit.

  5. This is the game I've been playing on the Deck. Works pretty great on there. It's super lofi graphics, but great loot and stash system, battle, buffs, it's a decent roguelike. When a game hooks me, it hooks me. And just a couple bucks. You die a lot! And lose everything, of course. Great bite sized runs.

  6. Indie game devs who have made roguelikes, have them on Steam and want to be in the Steam Sale that @roguelike_con is doing in October (you don't have to be a speaker at their conference to get your game in the sale!) - the form must be filled out by August 1, and it's here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI

  7. Played a little rogue560 (icegoat9.itch.io/rogue560) tonight - actually ran great via Firefox on my S21.

    rogue560 was made by @icegoat and it's pretty wild. Made for TweetJam 7 in 2021, it is a pico-8 game in just two tweets (560 characters) of code!

    Here's their description of it:

    Explore randomly-generated dungeons trying to get the highest score/health, or reach the deepest level

    The game is decidedly unfair in that it can randomly generate unbeatable levels that will end your run (you can always refresh and start over), but using challenging diagonal moves (hit two arrow keys at ~exactly the same time) can get you out of many tight spots.
