Game Making for a Better Community

Video games not only are an artistic means of expressing individuals, but have the potential for socio-cultural practice. This workshop dealt with games as an alternative medium of expression to discuss individuals and draw communities. Going beyond a player who proactively and critically answers the questions posed by the game, this program intended to foster game creators who present questions in the form of a game. This workshop allowed an opportunity to think about a game that could help to reflect in the process of performing repetitive actions toward the goal of the game, and a game that allows players to view issues related to reality from multiple perspectives.
