Workshop Game Writer Simulation: Collaborative Writing for Purposed Design

#Gtopia: Game Kitchen

Good games often tell good stories. How do game writers create these stories as a team? How can game stories be both interesting and meaningful? 

Dr. Ray LC, the next cook in Game Kitchen, is an artist, academic, and a great storyteller. For years, he works with neuroscientists, roboticists, performers, designers, architects to tell immersive stories for social good in his artworks; some of the works are actual games. 

Ray will teach the participants the skill and tool to write collaboratively as a game writer. Participants will group into small writing teams and work on stories together on a metaverse platform: Gather.Town. Game Kitchen designed a small tropical island with chill beach sound and wind, multiple private meeting zones, and hidden mini games.  "Game Kitchen" Project Page
