DICE: A Generic Model for the Design Process of Serious Games (Broacasting our studies)
This article deals with serious game design methods. More specifically, it focuses on the following question: is there any universal series of steps to design a serious game? Or is the availability of several different design methods unavoidable? To try to answer this question, we will study a corpus of ten design methods suited to Serious Games. Most of these theoretical tools are coming from or aimed to industry professionals. This literary review will allow us to perform a comparative [...]Keywords : game design, serious game, methodology, generic model
Design of serious gaming devices and experiences (Broacasting our studies)
Abstract : This thesis begins by questioning the legitimacy and durability of the serious game. For this, we propose to explore both Serious Game and Serious Play. Indeed, the association of Game Studies and Play Studies is, in our opinion, a complementary and necessary approach to hope to conduct such analysis. These aspects specified, this thesis explores the possibility of using game to assign to it utilitarian objectives. The concepts of Serious Gaming, Serious Game design, Gamification [...]Keywords : Gamification, Game Based Learning, Serious Game, Serious Gaming, Serious Play, Serious Playing, Ludopedagogy, Ungamification

Design Games and Game Design: Relations Between Design, Codesign and Serious Games in Adult Education (Broacasting our studies)
Experience design implies an "experience to be lived" (Vial, 2015) where the subjects "interact with their natural and artificial environment". If we can easily imagine a "natural" or "artificial" environment, there is an in-between proposed by the game. Neither totally "natural" because it can rely on artifacts, nor totally "artificial" because some animals play and the game activity falls, depending o [...]Keywords : Serious Game, Design Game, Game design, Gamification, Ungamification, Serious Game design, Serious Play design
Innovation through retrogaming (Broacasting our studies)
This talk presents some ways in which retrogaming - the use of old video games or electronic games - can be used to understand the commercial failures of certain devices when they were first brought to market, or to reverse-engineer them. The idea is to draw lessons for the current development of innovative products in the field of games and serious gaming, to avoid repeating similar pitfalls or to find sources of inspiration. The conference concludes with a presentation of the concept of neo-re [...]Keywords : Serious game, Neo-retrogaming, Retrogaming, Video game, Model, Engineering, Reverse engineering, Electronic games

Datagame: gamifying crowdsourcing and sharing the wealth? (Broacasting our studies)
This presentation proposes to challenge one of the criteria proposed by Roger Caillois to define both play and game. This criterion is the 4th in relation to unproductivity. Based on the Datagame, a game category belonging to the Serious Game, we propose to demonstrate by a hypothetic-deductive approach our breaking with this fourth criterion. The key to the demonstration lies in the exploration of the concept of Datagame and the identification of associated sub-categories.Keywords : Datagame, Serious game, Video game, Health game, Gamification, Database, Crowdsourcing
