Keiji Inafune - Mega Man, Soul Sacrifice, Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z

de Andrew Schartmann

~~21,45€~~ 19,31€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book explores Keiji Inafune''s unique and controversial approach to video game design by breaking down his prolific output into seven key concepts. Keiji Inafune is a polarizing figure in the video game community. While some view his work on Capcom''s Mega Man series as a pivotal contribution to the gaming industry, others question his very claim to the title of game designer. No matter one''s stance, however, Inafune''s work inspires passionate discussions about video game design and its history. In this book, Andrew Schartmann explores seven core principles that permeate Inafune''s output and constitute his creative "voice." He also draws on Inafune''s controversial persona to probe the very definition of "video game designer"-a term problematized by the collaborative aspect of game design and the industry''s Wonka-esque obsession with secrecy. With high-profile games like Mega Man, Street Fighter and Resident Evil, Inafune''s repertoire provides an ideal lens through which to explore the nuts and bolts of game design and the many forces that shape it.

Eugene Jarvis - King Of The Arcade

de Matthew Thomas Payne

~~26,22€~~ 23,60€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book explores the influential work of Eugene Jarvis, designer of the wildly-successful arcade games Defender, Robotron: 2084, NARC, Smash TV, and Cruis''n USA, among others. Embracing a variety of genres across decades, the video games of Eugene Jarvis offer a series of design lessons in how to craft coin-operated game machines that can survive and thrive even as the arcade was disappearing from the American landscape. In particular, his titles demonstrate the enduring appeal of gameplay challenges, taboo content, and possessing a larger-than-life form factor and accessible gameplay. Drawing upon multiple interviews with Jarvis and his collaborators, as well as scholarly reflections on game design, historic industry data, and archival documents, this book makes the case that Jarvis is the unparalleled "King of the Arcade" for his ability to craft gameplay experiences that cannot be replicated on home consoles or personal computers.

Hideo Kojima - Progressive Game Design From Metal Gear To Death Stranding

de Bryan Hikari Hartzheim

26,22€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 An exploration of the influential work of Hideo Kojima, creator of cinematic titles such as the blockbuster Metal Gear Solid franchise, which has moved over 50 million units globally, as well as Snatcher, Policenauts, and Death Stranding. As the architect of the Metal Gear Solid franchise, Kojima is synonymous with the "stealth game" genre, where tension and excitement is created from players avoiding enemies rather than confronting them. Through the franchise, Kojima also helped to bridge the gap between games and other forms of media, arguing that games could be deep experiences that unearthed complex emotions from players on the same level as films or novels. Drawing on archives of interviews in English and Japanese with Kojima and his team, as well as academic discourses of social/political games and cinematic narrative/world-building, this book examines Kojima''s progressive game design as it applies to four key areas: socially-relevant narratives, cinematic aesthetics, thematically-connected systems, and reflexive spaces.

Todd Howard - Worldbuilding In Tamriel And Beyond

de Wendi Sierra

29,80€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The newest addition to our Influential Video Game Designers series explores the work of Todd Howard, executive producer at Bethesda Studios, known for how he consistently pushes the boundaries of open-world gaming and player agency. Howard''s games create worlds in which players can design their own characters and tell their own stories. While many games tell the story of the game''s main character, Todd Howard''s worldbuilding approach to game design focuses more on telling the story of the game''s world, whether it be the high fantasy environments of the Elder Scrolls series or the post-apocalyptic wasteland of the Fallout series. This focus on sculpting the world allows for remarkable amounts of player freedom and choice in an expansive game environment by creating a landscape rich with open opportunity. Drawing on both academic discussions of narrative, world design, and game design, as well as on officially released interviews, speeches, and presentations given by Howard and other designers at Bethesda Games, Wendi Sierra highlights three core areas set Howard''s design perspective apart from other designers: micronarratives, iterative design, and the sharing of design tools. Taken as a whole, these three elements demonstrate how Howard has used a worldbuilding perspective to shape his games. In doing so, he has impacted not only Bethesda Studios, but also the landscape of game design itself.

Jane Jensen - Gabriel Knight, Adventure Games, Hidden Objects

de Anastasia Salter

30,99€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In the 1990s, the Personal Computer (or PC) was on the rise in homes, and with it came new genres of play. Yet most of the games in these new genres featured fantasylands or humorous science fiction landscapes with low stakes and little to suggest the potential of the PC as a serious space for art and play. Jane Jensen''s work and landmark Gabriel Knight series brought a new darkness and personality to PC gaming, offering a first powerful glimpse of what games could be as they came of age. As an author and designer, Jensen brought her approach as a designer-writer hybrid to the forefront of game design, with an approach to developing environments through detailed research to make game settings come to life, an attention to mature dilemmas and complex character development, and an audience-driven vision for genres reaching beyond the typical market approaches of the gaming industry. With a brand new interview with Jensen herself, Anastasia Salter provides the first ever look Jensen''s impact and role in advancing interactive narrative and writing in the game design process.

de Jennifer Dewinter

28,61€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Video games are considered by many to be just entertainment-essentially void of skillful, artistic intervention. But as any gamer knows, there''s incredible technical and graphic talent behind even a flickering Gameboy screen. You may have never heard Shigeru Miyamoto''s name, but you''ve probably spent many a lazy afternoon absorbed in his work. Joining Nintendo as a video game designer in the late 1970s, Miyamoto created the powerhouse franchises Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, and Donkey Kong-games so ubiquitous that Miyamoto was named one of TIME''s 100 Most Influential People in 2007. Combining critical essays with interviews, bibliographies, and striking visuals, Shigeru Miyamoto unveils the artist behind thousands of glowing gaming screens, tracing out his design decisions, aesthetic preferences, and the material conditions that shaped his work. With this incredible (and incredibly unknown) figure, series editors Jennifer DeWinter and Carly Kocurek launch the Influential Video Game Designers series, at last giving these artists the recognition they deserve.
