Lollipop Chainsaw Goichiego Sudy I Problem Autorstwa W Medium Gier Wideo
2015 / Homo Ludens 2(8) Lollipop Chainsaw Goichiego Sudy i problem autorstwa w medium gier wideo DOMINIKA STASZENKO Uniwersytet Łódzki Abstract Goichi Suda's Lollipop Chainsaw and the problem of authorship in video games This paper examines the phenomenon of the game designed by Goichi Suda, also known as Suda 51. It focuses on the analysis of Lollipop Chainsaw, detailing the characteristics of his work, such as a sense of humor, unique aesthetics and controversial solutions. This Japanese designer is sometimes considered as an artist who manifests his original ideas even in high-budget games. This paper also describes the problem of authorship in the video games medium using Suda’s creation as an example. KEYWORDS: Goichi Suda, aesthetics, remediation, authorship 1. Wprowadzenie Kategoria autora w przypadku medium gier wideo nastręcza wiele trud- ności nie tylko w kwestii interpretacji, kim tak właściwie jest autor gry, ale Homo Ludens 2(8) / 2015 © Polskie Towarzystwo Badania Gier 2015 154 Dominika Staszenko także w kontekście pytania, czy w ogóle używanie takiego pojęcia jest zasad- ne w stosunku do interaktywnego dzieła powstałego przy współpracy wielu osób. W teorii filmu przyjmuje się, że reżyser odpowiada zarówno za aspekty techniczne związane z produkcją utworu, jak i estetyczne, co pozwala określić reżysera mianem autora sprawującego pieczę nad wszystkimi etapami powsta- wania dzieła, a także elementami decydującymi o wartości artystycznej obrazu (Carr, 2013, s. 11). Ze względu na fakt, że zarówno filmy, jak i gry powstają dzię- ki zaangażowaniu wieloosobowych zespołów, próba przełożenia takiej defi- nicji autorstwa na grunt badań nad nowym medium wydaje się uzasadniona. Jednakże problemem uniemożliwiającym zastosowanie analogii jest przede wszystkim trudność w rozstrzygnięciu, kto odpowiada za całokształt projektu. -
364 Gaminguistics: Proposing a Framework on The
Journal of Social Studies Education Research Sosyal Bilgiler Eğitimi Araştırmaları Dergisi 2019:10 (3),364-386 www.jsser.org Gaminguistics: Proposing a Framework on the Communication of Video Game Avatars Giyoto Giyoto1, SF. Luthfie Arguby Purnomo2, Lilik Untari3, SF. Lukfianka Sanjaya Purnama4 & Nur Asiyah5 Abstract This study attempts to construct a communication framework of video game avatars. Employing Aarseth’s textonomy, Rehak’s avatar’s life cycle, and Lury’s prosthetic culture avatar’s theories as the basis of analysis on fifty-five purposively selected games, this study proposes ACTION (Avatars, Communicators, Transmissions, Instruments, Orientations and Navigations). Avatars, borrowing Aarseth’s terms, are classifiable into interpretive, explorative, configurative, and textonic with four systems and sub classifications for each type. Communicators, referring to the participants involved in the communication with the avatars and their relationship, are classifiable into unipolar, bipolar, tripolar, quadripolar, and pentapolar. Transmissions, the ways in which communication is transmitted, are classifiable into restrictive verbal and restrictive non-verbal. Instruments, the graphical embodiment of communications, are realized into dialogue boxes, non-dialogue boxes, logs, expressions, movements and emoticons. Orientations, the methods the game spatiality employs to direct the movement of the avatars, are classifiable into dictative and non-dictative. Navigations, the strategies avatars perform regarding with the information saving system of the games, are classifiable into experimental and non-experimental. Departing from this ACTION, analysts are able to employ this formula as an approach to reveal how the avatars utilize their own ‘linguistics’ to communicate, out of the linguistics benefited by humans. Keywords: framework of communication, game avatars, game studies, video games, prosthetic culture. -
Collecting: a Way of Exploring the Difficulty to Leave Game World
Collecting: a way of exploring the difficulty to leave game world Guo Yichen Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham, Ningbo, China for the degree of Master of Philosophy July 2015 Page 1 Abstract: Digital games have become a part of daily life for people in recent years. they have the capacity of making game users set playing games as top priority in daily life. In this sense, playing digital games can break the balance between the virtual and the reality and it is possible that some people may get lost in the virtual world. However, this thesis argues that it can be inappropriate just equating excessive play with addiction. By discussing and connecting previous literature reviews on games and addiction, as well as adding three game case studies, this thesis finally finds collecting as a different approach to explore the difficulty to leave game world. Through discussing in-game collecting and book collecting in ancient China, this thesis helps answer how people understand the heavy use on digital games and what is hidden behind choosing to stay in game world. Page 2 Acknowledgement: I would like to firstly thank my supervisors Dr. Andrew White and Dr. Bjarke Liboriussen for their priceless academic support. I would also like to thank my father who offered me first-hand resources to help me construct the discussion part, he deserves my special respect. Page 3 Table of content: 1.

Killer Is Dead Review – Let Me Play Already Grasshopper Manufacture and Suda 51 Tell a Long Story About Nothing
NEWS FEATURES PLATFORMS VIDEOS UPCOMING GAMES GUIDES AUGUST 30, 2013 Search Killer Is Dead Review – Let Me Play Already Grasshopper Manufacture and Suda 51 tell a long story about nothing. Andrea Castellano / Features / Reviews / At the very least, Grasshopper Manufacture creates game worlds where the phrase, “I stayed on the moon last week,” casually leads to all people listening to nods their heads in understanding. Killer Is Dead fails to portray the token weirdness of previous Grasshopper games, and when that realization dawns, the shifted focus on gameplay and story quickly exposes the game’s တԀaws. Despite its short length, Killer Is Dead still manages to eတāectively waste your time with seemingly endless, pointless cutscenes and too infrequent moments of play. Mondo Zappa works for a government funded assassination agency where he carries out contracts killing local trouble makers. With his Genkkou Katana and robotic left arm called the Musselback, Mondo easily dispatches enemies with plenty of time left for the ladies. Like most Grasshopper games, Killer Is Dead injects themes of sexuality all throughout the game. While the amount of cleavage shots and sex jokes doesn’t even compare to the total found in games like No More Heroes or Lollipop Chainsaw, this time Grasshopper and Suda 51 opted for the creepier, more sexist Gigolo missions to get their perversion across. The Gigolo missions place Mondo on a date with a female friend. With the goal of heading to the bedroom established early, when she looks away, you must stare at your date’s naughty parts to raise your Guts meter. -
