Strategies for the design of reflective shortform videogames

2020
Through the critical, iterative making of a series of game design experiments, in this practice-based research I enact and interrogate a collection of strategies and terms for the design, making, study, and discussion of reflective, shortform videogames. These are videogames, generally produced by individuals or small teams of makers, that are designed
