This is particularly crucial for video game developers. Due to the constant updating that takes place in games, developers understanding their players’ concerns/needs and designing a solution along with them can have a significant effect on a game. However, despite this, there are numerous games that are notorious for their lack of care for the feedback they get from their players. For my project, I wanted to make a Twine story that demonstrates how different aspects of the video game industry can factor into the bad co-design that plagues these games. Although there are some parts of the Twine that are interactive, it is fundamentally a story within the genre of an absurdist satire.” font_container=”tag:h1|font_size:26|text_align:left|color:%236d6f71″ google_fonts=”font_family:Archivo%20Narrow%3Aregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][vc_btn title=”Click here to explore FORTNITE: THE GAME” shape=”square” color=”white” align=”center” i_icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-sign-out” add_icon=”true” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fyishakalaka.itch.io%2Fcapstone||target:%20_blank|” css=”.vc_custom_1652103539830{border-radius: 2px !important;}”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”6760″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https://yishakalaka.itch.io/capstone”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][vc_separator color=”custom” border_width=”3″ accent_color=”#5bc0b2″][vc_btn title=”© Design Cultures & Creativity, 2022″ style=”classic” color=”white” size=”sm” align=”center” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fdcc.umd.edu||target:%20_blank|”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/5″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/5″][vc_icon icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-envelope-o” color=”custom” align=”center” custom_color=”#2f4858″ link=”url:mailto%3Adcc-honors%40umd.edu|||”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/5″][vc_icon icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-instagram” color=”custom” align=”center” custom_color=”#2f4858″ link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Finstagram.com%2Fumd_dcc||target:%20_blank|”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/5″][vc_icon icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-twitter” color=”custom” align=”center” custom_color=”#2f4858″ link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fumd_dcc|||”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/5″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
