LocoRoco Remastered Review - Een en al vrolijkheid. Herinneren jullie de PlayStation Portable nog? De voorloper van de Vita heeft best wel een aantal pareltjes in zijn gamebibliotheek staan en LocoRoco is daar zeker een van. In onze LocoRoco Remastered review lees je of de game na ruim een decennia nog steeds van kwalitatief hoog niveau is. LocoRoco zijn schattige ronde blobjes die niet veel doen naast luieren en zingen. Als de Moja troepen aanvallen weten de LocoRoco niet hoe ze zich moeten verdedigen en dus mag jij een handje helpen. Daarvoor speel je niet als de blobjes, maar als de planeet die door hen bewoond wordt. Door de complete wereld te kantelen laat je de LocoRoco door de levels rollen en probeer je de Moja te verdringen van de planeet. Eenvoudige besturing. De gameplay draait dan ook helemaal om het platformen door vijf verschillende werelden. Je hebt maar een aantal knoppen nodig om de LocoRoco naar het einde van een level te brengen, terwijl je onderweg bessen opeet om extra LocoRoco te krijgen tot een maximum van twintig. Met de schouderknoppen kantel je de wereld en als je ze beide tegelijk indrukt stuiteren de blobjes de lucht in. Door op rondje te drukken valt de LocoRoco uit elkaar in meerdere blobjes en door deze knop ingedrukt te houden kruipen ze weer bij elkaar. Deze drie knoppen zijn alles wat je nodig hebt, zelfs de pookjes hoef je niet te gebruiken. Mocht je helemaal minimalistisch willen gaan dan kun je LocoRoco ook spelen door de controller te kantelen (met trophies de enige toevoeging ten opzichte van de PSP-versie), al verlies je hierbij wel de nodige finesse om alles te behalen. Dit is sowieso wel een puntje, want heel nauwkeurig is de besturing niet. Als je op jacht gaat naar verzamelitems kan het nog wel eens frustrerend worden om met de besturing rekening te houden. Korte game met veel te doen. Door de levels heen vind je steeds een twintigtal bessen waarom je steeds groter wordt. Deze bessen liggen soms goed verborgen, waarbij je ook moet denken om tegen iedere muur aan te rollen omdat hier wel eens een geheime ruimte achter kan liggen. In deze verborgen gebieden loop je ook soms MuiMui tegen het lijf, vrienden van de LocoRoco, en ook deze dien je te verzamelen om dichterbij de 100% voltooiing te komen. Ten slotte vliegen er nog honderden Muntertjes rond. Met de verzamelde Muntertjes kun je minigames spelen in het hoofdmenu. LocoRoco doet het wel goed met content die ervoor zorgt dat je de game meermaals opstart. Door de vijf werelden heen rollen kost je maar een uur of vier, maar als je alle geheimen wilt ontdekken, alle verzamelitems binnen wilt slepen en alle minigames wilt voltooien kun je die tijd makkelijk keer twee of drie doen. Al is het natuurlijk gewoon jammer dat LocoRoco 2 niet ook op het schijfje staat voor een dubbele hoeveelheid content. Door de korte levels was LocoRoco een ideale game om op een handheld te spelen, maar de remaster brengt de platformer nou naar de PlayStation 4. Het is maar de vraag of mensen ervoor gaan zitten om een game als LocoRoco te spelen op de bank. Uit ervaring blijkt dat de game het beste speelt in korte sessies en dus niet in één lange zit waarin je door alle werelden speelt. Daarnaast is LocoRoco ook ideaal vermaak voor kleinere kinderen die pas beginnen met gamen. Vrolijkheid ten top. Deze doelgroep zal zich waarschijnlijk ook het meest aangesproken voelen tot de graphics en muziek, al valt het niet te ontkennen dat zelfs een bejaarde zuurpruim vrolijk zal worden van LocoRoco. We zeiden eerder al dat de LocoRoco ervan houden om te zingen en dat doen ze de hele game door dan ook. In een verzonnen taal gaan ze helemaal los op ontzettend catchy deuntjes die je weken later nog steeds in je hoofd hebt. Mooi gedaan is hoe de muziek verder aanzwelt naarmate je meer LocoRoco verzamelt en je ook echt meerdere stemmen terughoort in de muziek. Er zijn zes verschillende kleuren LocoRoco die ook alle zes een ander liedje zingen. Deze vrolijke muziek is maar het begin van de charme van LocoRoco. De game weet ook een lach tevoorschijn te toveren door de kleurrijke en schattige graphics. De PSP-game is nu in 4K te spelen op de PS4 Pro en full HD op de normale PS4 waardoor de game er mooier uitziet dan ooit. Je merkt haast niet dat LocoRoco eigenlijk al elf jaar oud is. Alleen de tussenfilmpjes zijn niet meer op de standaard van vandaag. Daarnaast zijn er wat spelfouten ingeslopen in de Nederlandse versie van de remaster wat een beetje slordig overkomt. Dit neemt natuurlijk niet weg dat de game gewoon prima speelt en je met een vrolijk gevoel achter zal laten. LocoRoco Remastered Review - Een glimlach van oor tot oor. De beste manier om LocoRoco te omschrijven is dan ook het woord 'vrolijkheid'. Je kunt deze game niet spelen met een frons op je gezicht. Soms zul je misschien gefrustreerd raken over de besturing, maar als je de LocoRoco daarna weer hoort zingen deins je weer tevreden mee op de muziek. Na elf jaar is LocoRoco nog steeds een genot om te spelen, al blijft het jammer dat het pakket niet completer is met het vervolg erbij of andere toevoegingen aan de game. LocoRoco™ Remastered. ГОТОВЬТЕСЬ КАТИТЬСЯ СНОВА Миру угрожают подлые Moja Corps, и веселые песни LocoRoco это единственное, что может их остановить.

  • Intersomatic Awareness in Game Design
    The London School of Economics and Political Science Intersomatic Awareness in Game Design Siobhán Thomas A thesis submitted to the Department of Management of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. London, June 2015 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 66,515 words. 2 Abstract The aim of this qualitative research study was to develop an understanding of the lived experiences of game designers from the particular vantage point of intersomatic awareness. Intersomatic awareness is an interbodily awareness based on the premise that the body of another is always understood through the body of the self. While the term intersomatics is related to intersubjectivity, intercoordination, and intercorporeality it has a specific focus on somatic relationships between lived bodies. This research examined game designers’ body-oriented design practices, finding that within design work the body is a ground of experiential knowledge which is largely untapped. To access this knowledge a hermeneutic methodology was employed. The thesis presents a functional model of intersomatic awareness comprised of four dimensions: sensory ordering, sensory intensification, somatic imprinting, and somatic marking.

    Bachelor’s thesis Information & Communications Technology 2021 Jarno Salo STORYTELLING THROUGH GAME AUDIO – case Juuret BACHELOR’S THESIS | ABSTRACT TURKU UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES Information & Communications Technology 2021 | 36 pages Jarno Salo STORYTELLING THROUGH GAME AUDIO • case Juuret Game audio is an integral part of the game development process. It helps greatly in creating immersion and building believable game worlds. Still it is often overlooked or just an afterthought. Badly made game audio can ruin even a good game. The purpose of this thesis was to design and create all the audio for a 3D adventure game called Juuret. It is the first game from a startup game company called FoxFail Creations. The audio was designed based on the research of music and game suggestions given by the commissioner. The design was then further improved after conducting literature research into types of game audio and their roles in creating immersion. After this the music and the ambience were carefully crafted using a Digital Audio Workstation and a MIDI keyboard. The sound effects were then recorded by using a microphone and a USB audio interface. The theoretical section of the thesis examines the evolution of game audio and related technology and how that has affected the ways game audio is created. The thesis also examines what types of game audio exist and the different roles they fill, how music becomes the soundtrack for the player’s actions, how ambience fills the game world with details and how sound effects give feedback to the player about what is happening. Finally the thesis examines what type of workflow to expect when working in an audio role in the game industry.

  • On the Core Elements of the Experience of Playing Video Games
    On the Core Elements of the Experience of Playing Video Games Eduardo Hector´ Calvillo Gamez´ A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy UCL UCL Interaction Centre Department of Computer Science August 2009 Declaration I, Eduardo H´ector Calvillo G´amez, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Although some of this research has been published with my supervisors as co- authors, Paul Cairns, Anna L. Cox and Ann Blandford, the work reported is my own. Abstract This dissertation presents a multi-method approach to study the user experience of playing video games. The motivation is to devise an objective assessment of the concept of user experience. It is proposed that user experience is better understood when it is studied as a two fold phenomenon formed by a process and an outcome. This definition allows the combination of the subjective nature of experience together with the objectivity needed to propose an objective assessment of experience. An experience is personal in the achieved outcome, during the process of forming it there are elements specific to the type of experience common to all individuals. The thesis presents a series of studies to explore and understand the gaming expe- rience as well as to identify the procedural elements of the experience. The outcome of the studies was the formulation of the theoretical framework that we called Core Elements of the Gaming Experience (CEGE), which focuses on the process of the ex- perience.
