“Feel” is the essence of human-computer interaction. It is the singlemost important (yet often overlooked) element in games that makes thegame art form unique. No other traditional art form like film,literature, music encompasses interactivity, as games do. This bookbring “feel” to the forefront and gives it a proper voice.
Product Description
“Game Feel” exposes “feel” as a hidden language in game design that noone has fully articulated yet. The language could be compared to thebuilding blocks of music (time signatures, chord progressions, verse) –no matter the instruments, style or time period – these building blockscome into play. Feel and sensation are similar building blocks wheregame design is concerned. They create the meta-sensation of involvementwith a game.
The understanding of how game designers create feel, and affect feelare only partially understood by most in the field and tends to beoverlooked as a method or course of study, yet a game’s feel is centralto a game’s success. This book brings the subject of feel to light byconsolidating existing theories into a cohesive book.
The book covers topics like the role of sound, ancillary indicators,the importance of metaphor, how people perceive things, and a briefhistory of feel in games.
