…Players considered facets of older games this month. Cameron Kunzelman revisited middling 2011 shooter Homefront, exploring where the game went right, most notably in its unexpectedly emotional core and its careful characterization. The only thing I remember about Homefront is playing it in front of my dad and saying, “Well, it’s a videogame,” so I really enjoyed Cameron’s thoughtful take.

…memory. Location is. Even in Homer, we can see how the teller imagines narrative progressing between particular locations. There are temporal markers in the poem as well, of course, but the significance of that time, the change, is visible in the particular spaces themselves at different points in the story.

So why is this important? What does it matter if space tells story? For one, I think it is important to realize that our minds may value space more importantly than they do time. For designing games, this means particular spaces and the progression of those spaces will be…

Flower

…that way in a game. The only way I can explain it is that the interactivity brings it closer to real life. After all, a flower isn’t corny until somebody takes a tacky photo of it. The flower itself did nothing wrong.” On second thought, however, she turns to describing it as “hope in a pill”, saying that by the end, “Flower didn’t remind me of a ‘haiku’ or a dream so much as a commercial.”

On a meta-analytic level, Leigh Alexander lets it be known via a trio of SexyVideogameLand posts that she’s less than impressed by the…

Episode 26 – Five out of Na Pali

This month we have a double, yet related, feature.

First, in side A, I talk with Alan Williamson and Lindsey Joyce, the editor-in-chief and managing editor respectively of Five out of Ten. We chat about the creation and ongoing process of creating the magazine, what it’s like working with a hand of experience and what it’s like learning the ropes.

Then, in side B, Alan Williamson returns, this time, with his co-author Kaitlin Tremblay to talk about their book, Escape to Na Pali: Journey to the Unreal, that came out of an upgraded Five out of Ten

Braid 10th anniversary Critical Compilation

…to include:

claiming the privilege of a true, objective yet hidden meaning in Braid;
questioning the validity of writing amateur criticism;
saying that an English major is all about “bullshitting” (while conversely that computer science is all about cold, objective facts);
claiming that philosophy should exist on a continuum of sciences;
trying to disallow various “incorrect” interpretations of the game, such as Holly at Feministe’s

Truthfully though, assumptions about Blow’s intentions for Braid were mixed up into people’s interpretations of it even before it was released. In the lead up to Braid‘s…

Esther Wright | Keywords in Play, Episode 18

…about like, that’s why the title is the kind of ‘Construction of Authenticity’ and it’s why that you know what I’m talking about authenticity I’m not talking about an actual defined property or value that we can actually ever really unpick, I don’t think authenticity is that. It’s not quality. It’s always, it’s a performance, it’s a claim that, that people are making and can be kind of interpreted positively or negatively. And what Rockstar were doing was trying to ensure that their fans interpreted it positively rather than kind of negatively.
