S3E3: Dr. Amy Duncan <> Making Players the Hero of their Journey in Therapeutic Games
We’re already at Episode 3!
In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Amy Duncan to explore her work and game development at Sea Monster Impact Games Studio.
Amy has a PhD in Neuropsychology and is a registered Neuropsychologist with a strong background in education and academia. She is hugely passionate about using games to drive learning and behaviour change at scale to create a positive impact in the world.
In this episode, we explore:
Having the intuition to lead you to knocking on a game studio's CEO's door because you’re so passionate about serious & impactful games
Creating Human-centered and user-centered and designing games where players become their heroes in their own journey, as a framework for translating gameplay into new knowledge and new real-world behaviors.
The therapeutic experience of games, connecting with mind, body, environment and music with examples like ‘the last my-stro’ supporting people with PTSD.
