On November 27 2019, game designer Pietro Polsinelli led a workshop on merging storytelling principles and game design tools for the students of the Master of Arts in Game Design at IULM University. The workshop took place at Cascina Moncucco during GAME CONTEXTS, one of the Program’s core courses. It was also open to all alumni of the M.A. Program.
When defining the narrative of a game, even at the concept level, it is useful to write down short characters bios, articulate the game's background universe, outline the possible endings and so on. Writing a sample dialogue or textual introduction can reveal several hidden or undefined features required and how they should interact with the game mechanics. Polsinelli will illustrate the development of the recent Football Drama, and how that process was expanded for his next project, Roller Drama concept design, pointing out some specific concepts needed when making narratives and mechanics interact. Students will work together with Pietro to add narrative background research and mechanics to their projects.
Pietro Polsinelli is a game designer and developer, mostly working on applied (a.k.a. educational) games. He co-authored a book on applied games in Italian and is currently writing a book on applied games (in English) titled Explaining With Games.

Detail sketch of the ribcage. Though modelled, it got scraped in the end, as it just added visual noise.

AAA Collective
ACID GAMES
gamedesign.university/aaa-collective
In this talk, four members of the collective AAA (Merle Leufgen, Gabriel Helfenstein, Troy Duguid, and Jessica Palmer) will present their work and reflect on their collaborative practices which intent to propose an alternative to the often accepted thinking that the way we live and organize society is the only possible way. The aim of the talk will be to show how games and collaborative exchange in game development can help break the inertia resulting from the perceived lack of possibles disrupting the current status quo - in our everyday lives as well as in the production of art.NY DSC

PLEASE RSVP
In this talk, Alex Camilleri will present and explore games that provide unique ideas and show singular cultural traits through game mechanics and narratives. Spanning from small experimental games to bigger productions, the aim of this talk is to show how valuable it can be to create games that challenge and enrich the player’s understanding of the world.
Alex Camilleri is an Italian game designer currently living in Malmö, Sweden. After experimenting with the game medium and following the release of the autobiographical game Memoir En Code: Reissue, Alex decided it was time to change gear. He now makes scary stuff at Frictional Games as a gameplay designer and programmer, but still finds time to make small interactive experiences.
