PhD student at the University of York at IGGI. Specialized in player experience and perception in games, I'm working on understanding player difficulties such as being stuck for player with a focus on the impact of emotional design.
Thrilled to be nominated by @gamerepublic.bsky.social for the Best Game-Related Research Award. I'm looking forward to attending the ceremony as GaMaYo on the 13th November, with another super-skilled @iggi-phd.bsky.social researcher, Tania Dales!

And play all the games I can. Needless to say.

I would say the @developconference.com went quite well. It was so exciting to have a full room of people interested in EMOTIONAL DESIGN at an event of this level!
If you missed it, check out my previous post with all the slides from my talk and some additional cool material on the topic!

I'm excited to be a speaker at @developconference.com with my talk on Player Emotional Design!

I will discuss from the design aspects that make experiences unforgettable to the mistakes that can transform the experience into an undesirable one.
