Situational Game Design

Situational Design lays out a new methodology for designing and critiquing videogames. While most game design books focus on games as formal systems Situational Design concentrates squarely on player experience. It looks at how playfulness is not a property of a game considered in isolation but rather the result of the intersection of a game with an appropriate player. Starting from simple concepts the book advances step-by-step to build up a set of practical tools for designing player-centric playful situations. While these tools provide a fresh perspective on familiar design challenges as well as those overlooked by more transactional design paradigms. Key Features Introduces a new methodology of game design that concentrates on moment-to-moment player experience Provides practical design heuristics for designing playful situations in all types of games Offers groundbreaking techniques for designing non-interactive play spaces Teaches designers how to create games that function as performances Provides a roadmap for the evolution of games as an art form. | Situational Game Design

3D Origami Art

Easily Create Origami with Curved Folds and Surfaces Origami making shapes only through folding reveals a fascinating area of geometry woven with a variety of representations. The world of origami has progressed dramatically since the advent of computer programs to perform the necessary computations for origami design. 3D Origami Art presents the design methods underlying 3D creations derived from computation. It includes numerous photos and design drawings called crease patterns which are available for download on the author‘s website. Through the book‘s clear figures and descriptions readers can easily create geometric 3D structures out of a set of lines and curves drawn on a 2D plane. The author uses various shapes of sheets such as rectangles and regular polygons instead of square paper to create the origami. Many of the origami creations have a 3D structure composed of curved surfaces and some of them have complicated forms. However the background theory underlying all the creations is very simple. The author shows how different origami forms are designed from a common theory.

Procedural Generation in Game Design

Making a game can be an intensive process and if not planned accurately can easily run over budget. The use of procedural generation in game design can help with the intricate and multifarious aspects of game development; thus facilitating cost reduction. This form of development enables games to create their play areas objects and stories based on a set of rules rather than relying on the developer to handcraft each element individually. Readers will learn to create randomized maps weave accidental plotlines and manage complex systems that are prone to unpredictable behavior. Tanya Short’s and Tarn Adams’ Procedural Generation in Game Design offers a wide collection of chapters from various experts that cover the implementation and enactment of procedural generation in games. Designers from a variety of studios provide concrete examples from their games to illustrate the many facets of this emerging sub-discipline. Key Features: Introduces the differences between static/traditional game design and procedural game design Demonstrates how to solve or avoid common problems with procedural game design in a variety of concrete ways Includes industry leaders’ experiences and lessons from award-winning games World’s finest guide for how to begin thinking about procedural design

Essential Skills in Character Rigging

Character rigging is the method with which you create a system for animating a character. A rig is represented by two primary mechanics: the skeleton consisting of hierarchical rotations to drive the motions and a skin or method of deforming the geometry that makes up the character model. Essential Skills in Character Rigging is a beginner‘s guide to learning and understanding the essential aspects of character setup evaluation skeletal construction and deformation. Borrowing from the author‘s extensive experience in the field it presents the primary theories constructs and objectives for constructing a basic rig from the ground up just as it would be done in a professional studio. The book explains the basic elements of hierarchies skeletons kinematics deformation skinning and creating relationships between nodes. It gives hands-on experience with taking a completed character model and setting it up with a skeleton with kinematics and soft-skin deformation. It also gives specific instructions on using inverse kinematics systems and how to set up the essential mechanics of a human rig with these systems. All of these lessons are conducted using a simplistic conversational style that keeps technical and mathematical jargon to a minimum. The book also includes video tutorials corresponding to specific modules. Essential Skills in Character Rigging takes aspiring character artists through the vital components in the process of taking a 3D character model and turning it into an animatable rig that is ready for production in film or games. It identifies the universal fundamentals at work behind character rigging and the practical complexities of the process are broken down into simple steps that are easy to comprehend and execute.

The Baseball Mysteries Challenging Puzzles for Logical Detectives

The Baseball Mysteries: Challenging Puzzles for Logical Detectives is a book of baseball puzzles logical baseball puzzles. To jump in all you need is logic and a casual fan’s knowledge of the game. The puzzles are solved by reasoning from the rules of the game and a few facts. The logic in the puzzles is like legal reasoning. A solution must argue from evidence (the facts) and law (the rules). Unlike legal arguments however a solution must reach an unassailable conclusion. There are many puzzle books. But there’s nothing remotely like this book. The puzzles here while rigorously deductive are firmly attached to actual events to struggles that are reported in the papers every day. The puzzles offer a unique and scintillating connection between abstract logic and gritty reality. Actually this book offers the reader an unlimited number of puzzles. Once you’ve solved a few of the challenges here every boxscore you see in the papers or online is a new puzzle! It can be anywhere from simple to complex to impossible. For anyone who enjoys logical puzzles. For anyone interested in legal reasoning. For anyone who loves the game of baseball. Jerry Butters has a BA in mathematics from Oberlin College and an MS in mathematics and a PhD in economics from the University of Chicago. He taught mathematics for two years at Mindanao State University in the Philippines as a Peace Corps volunteer. He taught economics for five years at Princeton University. For most of his career he worked on consumer protection cases and policy issues at the Federal Trade Commission. In his retirement he has become a piano teacher and performer. He enjoys hobbies ranging from reading Chinese to practicing Taiji. This book is an outgrowth of another of his hobbies—his love of designing and solving puzzles of all sorts.
