Character Collision: Interpolating Characters into Free-to-Play Games | Kenny Shea DINKIN VIDEO
This talk will explore the challenge game designers face when trying to incorporate story-telling and characters into games, and the particular challenges that differentiate a designer working in the world of free-to-play. Kenny will explore successful (and less successful) character highlights from the last two years, as well as a comparative core games example or two—and will offer a set of tools for game designers to facilitate authentic incorporation of characters into casual gameplay.
