27. • We’ve change from Dogolf to Pong World
• Reasons for doing so:
• Keeps with our “keep it simple” mantra.
• Easy to Play.
• Easy to Understand.
• Use a GPS to determine a point of origin.
• Use the GPS to determine changes in
location
• Send details to the game server
• Repeat and rinse.
29. • Erodes the idea that you need to be in the
same physical space to play a physical
game.
• Irene: “The player is reduced to his
element: a solid bar”.
• With the abstraction of the environment,
the local environment brings on a greater
meaning.
• Irene: “The small screen opens the player
to a whole other world.”
31. • Again... Keep the game play simple
• Use the server to do the heavy lifting (for
example using the server to calculate the
distance between two points)
• Only use the mobile for game play (use a
website for tracking high-scores and for
maintaining community)
