#26: Kelli and Josué have been playing a lot of Disney Emoji Blitz. A LOT. It may have to do with how “juicy” the game is, meaning that its feedback is emotionally satisfying.

  • How to Design for the Gut (Good article on “juiciness”) – http://bit.ly/2tXazH7

#23: Kelli and Josué discuss how games can be a part of a much bigger story told through different media. Think of how Star Wars and Halo stories are told through books and movies in addition to games. Do stories in other formats make your play experience better and vice versa?

Notes:

  • Transmedia Storytelling on Wikipedia – http://bit.ly/2oIaPHz
  • The Battlefront II tie-in novel is Lucasfilm’s incredible creative strategy in action – http://bit.ly/2oIay7k
