A Game Making & Design Workshop<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Somewhere beyond the 69th<\/sup> Call of Duty<\/em> sequel lies a world of interesting games: games that have been played since dice were invented, games about queer culture, games that we make for friends as gifts, and games that your mom would play. In this workshop, led by media artist and game designer Brin \u017dvan<\/strong>, these are the kinds of games we are thinking of. The first day delves into the folk history of games, showing how minor changes to their mechanics can change their contexts and the ways we see them, and we create a board game. On the next day, we use the tool Downpour to create small exploration-based games, play with basic interactions and help us think of games in terms of their most essential units. Finally, on the third and fourth days we focus on Bitsy, a simple game-making tool which, despite its limitations, allows us to expand these boundaries while learning the basics of logic programming. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The results of this workshop are featured in the exhibition at the School of Arts, University of Nova Gorica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
