Description

A game "experience" is built upon the memory of the emotions the player visits. In order to optimize the emotional relevance of every moment the player is interacting with the game product, an Emotional Script ought to be thoughtfully designed.

Sound explorations hold great potential in the design of the Emotional Script.

In addition to the comprehensive exploration that this pattern suggests, the Deck contains some other design patters which may also contribute to some of the pieces in that Emotional Script. Those include: satisfaction (e.g. Achievement), disappointment (e.g. Failure, Death), excitement (e.g. Engagement), tension (e.g. Anticipation, Engagement, Imminent Death, Hurry Up!, Window of Opportunity, Silence), serenity (e.g. Relaxation, Trance), anxiety (Silence, Noise), fear (Breath, Hearthbeat), emphaty (e.g. Ouch!, Grunts, Thoughts), relieve (e.g. Decay), interest (e.g. Awareness), affection (e.g. Make Sound not War), etc. [pending: classification inspired in EARL [REF]]
