Reply To: Sen-Foong Lim, awesome game designer

[Sen-Foong Lim]

Hi Duncan, thanks for the question! As a therapist and professor (Developmental Psychology), I think the most important thing I’ve learned from my day job that I use in game design are the theoretical frameworks of learning and behaviour that I view games through.

I’m particularly interested in the theories of Flow Experience (Csikszentmihalyi), Operant Conditioning (Skinner), and Social Learning (Vygotsky) and I made a quick vid on those topics here: https://youtu.be/GKl-hCh5FYM?list=PLWuEi8OvyRYIUOOmB891fTlAtpZDaUuNW

Enjoy!
