Looking to connect with game designer types?

View Comments

Hi everyone – I’m looking to meet up with some game designer types. If you are one or know of any, please get in touch with me at voodoo [at] g mail [dot] com.

In particular, I’m interested in the fact that game design is partly the creation of incentive systems to get users to move along a certain path, and give them enjoyment at the same time. You could imagine applying that general technique to a variety of different applications, not just games.

Anyway, please send me a note if you know anyone like this. (And sorry for the light blogging, I’ll get back on the saddle in the next couple days)

    I like where you're going with this.


    You know what my favorite enterprise app is? Issue tracking systems (notably Bugger + Product Studio @ MS). There's an oddly satisfying feeling of accomplishment when you look up at the top right hand side of your screen, and your active bug count is 0.

    Or, when I create a few tracking issues, assign them to various owners, and have the pleasant satisfaction of knowing that somewhere - somebody is going to accomplish the tasks I needed done.
