Duel reality: a sword-fighting game for novel gameplay around intentionally hiding body data
Article No.: 3, Pages 1 - 5
Abstract
New sensor technologies, especially for body related activities, offer new opportunities for play, sparking research into new styles of game interactions. However, how this new sensor data can be utilized for engaging play experiences is not yet fully understood. In order to explore this opportunity, we designed Duel Reality, a novel sword-fighting game offering new gameplay experiences through intentionally hiding real-time body data. In order to articulate the opportunities afforded by novel sensing technology around the body, we identify two key concepts around this topic based on our design knowledge and articulate four challenges when creating novel gameplay using these sensors. With our work, we aim to support game designers who are interested in facilitating novel play experiences through the use of emerging sensing technologies that are concerned with the players' bodies.

Designing sports: a framework for exertion games
CHI '11: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsExertion games require investing physical effort. The fact that such games can support physical health is tempered by our limited understanding of how to design for engaging exertion experiences. This paper introduces the Exertion Framework as a way to ...
Designing for Bodily Interplay in Social Exertion Games
While exertion games facilitate, and benefit from, social play, most exertion games merely support players acting independently. To help designers explore the richness of social play in exertion games, we present the design dimension “bodily interplay” ...
