The Gamer's Brain How Neuroscience and UX Can Impact Video Game Design

The Gamer's Brain How Neuroscience and UX Can Impact Video Game Design

Making a successful video game is hard. Even games that are well-received at launch may fail to engage players in the long term due to issues with the user experience (UX) that they are delivering. That’s why makers of successful video games like Fortnite and Assassin’s Creed invest both time and money perfecting their UX strategy. These top video game creators know that a bad user experience can ruin the prospects for any game regardless of its budget scope or ambition. The game UX accounts for the whole experience players have with a video game from first hearing about it to navigating menus and progressing in the game. UX as a discipline offers guidelines to assist developers in creating the optimal experience they want to deliver including shipping higher quality games (whether indie triple-A or serious games) and meeting business goals - all while staying true to design vision and artistic intent. At its core UX is about understanding the gamer’s brain: understanding human capabilities and limitations to anticipate how a game will be perceived the emotions it will elicit how players will interact with it and how engaging the experience will be. This book is designed to equip readers of all levels from student to professional with cognitive science knowledge and user experience guidelines and methodologies. These insights will help readers identify the ingredients for successful and engaging video games empowering them to develop their own unique game recipe more efficiently while providing a better experience for their audience. The Gamer's Brain: How Neuroscience and UX Can Impact Video Game Design Is written by Celia Hodent - a UX expert with a PhD in psychology who has been working in the entertainment industry for over 10 years including at prominent companies such as Epic Games (Fortnite) Ubisoft and LucasArts. Major themes explored in this book: Provides an overview of how the brain learns and processes information by distilling research findings from cognitive science and psychology research in a very accessible way. Topics covered include: neuromyths perception memory attention motivation emotion and learning. Includes numerous examples from released games of how scientific knowledge translates into game design and how to use a UX framework in game development. Describes how UX can guide developers to improve the usability and the level of engagement a game provides to its target audience by using cognitive psychology knowledge implementing human-computer interaction principles and applying the scientific method (user research). Provides a practical definition of UX specifically applied to games with a unique framework. Defines the most relevant pillars for good usability (ease of use) and good engage-ability (the ability of the game to be fun and engaging) translated into a practical checklist. Covers design thinking game user research game analytics and UX strategy at both a project and studio level.

Water Agriculture and the Environment in Spain: can we square the circle?

Water Agriculture and the Environment in Spain: can we square the circle?

The world water problems are a due to bad governance not to physical water scarcity. This book is inspired by this statement and explores whether it holds in a specific country Spain where climatic conditions – Spain is one of the most arid countries of the European Union - would fully justify saying that water problems are due to physical water scarcity. The metrification of water uses and their monetary value is a first important step in understanding how reallocation of water among users could help mitigating many of current water problems in Spain. However water reallocation among users or from users to nature is far from simple. Initiatives portrayed as the solution to the water governance ‘jigsaw’ – e. g. water trade improved water use efficiency users collective action public participation – are not free of difficulties and shortcomings. The book explores the growing need for maintaining Spain’s natural capital and the human component of water governance – people’s needs wishes (vested) interests aspirations – that often determine the result of decisions and sometimes lead water management to a deadlock. This book takes a step forward in showing a more complex - and also closer to reality - picture of water governance in Spain. | Water Agriculture and the Environment in Spain: can we square the circle?

Coastal and Deep Ocean Pollution

Coastal and Deep Ocean Pollution

During the recent decades social political and academic endeavours have been made to improve environmental quality and reduce pollution. In particular the ocean sea and coastal areas show varying degrees of impact from the multiple human activities carried out in the terrestrial as well as in the aquatic environment. Ecology is a science which studies the relationship between organisms and the surrounding environment and in the modern era the marine world is getting increasing attention. For centuries it has been the final reservoir of human garbage; later it became an oil farm with a concomitant increase of coastal population growth and unplanned growth of the fishing industry and the increasing use of sea routes for cargo transport and recreational uses (cruises). All this led to rising contamination with negative effects on biota and even human health. It is then imperative to know the current situation of the world's oceans: that is the main purpose of this book to document at a glance the latest research in the field of ocean pollution. | Coastal and Deep Ocean Pollution
