| Abstract | Adding physical interactivity to the video game experience continues to entice game designers. Every few years, game designers create new methods for incorporating physical interactions within game systems. With each industry wave of design and hardware (peripheral) innovation, the potential for creating meaningful physical play spaces increases. Minor Battle attempts to create a new platform for physical immersion in video games by use of multiple screens. It requires players to physically move around the game installation in order to effectively engage the virtual space. Motivating the player to physically walk and run with their avatar creates a conceptual connection between the physical and the virtual game space that both reinforces and augments the relationship between the player and his or her avatar. |
