Hi:) For many of you, summer has just started, and that means more time for gaming:) So this time I prepared something a little different than usual. This video is less about game and level design, and more about the psychological techniques that games use to keep players engaged, influence their decisions, and sometimes push them to spend more than they originally planned. I wanted this episode to be interesting not only for game developers, but also for players:) So regardless of which side you're on, I hope that after watching this you'll find it a little easier to recognize the line between good game design and manipulation:) Have a great summer:)
