P4P Webinar #11: Game Design for prosocial causes

This talk, from the point of view of a designer/researcher, details how designers can create games for prosocial causes, backed by over 15 years of research at the Tiltfactor laboratory, Dartmouth College. Using example projects, Mary Flanagan will show what worked and what hasn’t yet in game research. The Q and A will take questions from participants into consideration and speculate on new horizons in game design.
