Ketchapp’s Post

🎲 Growing your professional skills through gaming 🎮 💢 One of the problems with a (role-playing) game for business is how do you translate the real world into a game? How do you represent the complexities that make up a person as a set of characteristics in a game that doesn’t overwhelm your audience? 🌐 As it’s been a while, I’d like to update you a bit on the business TTRPG I’ve been working on, and this particular issue I’ve (been) grappled with. 🚀 The question is how do you keep the experience simple enough for your audience but allow for enough depth that there is value and importantly, repeat playability. And one aspect of this is the characteristics that represent a player’s avatar. For reference in a traditional fantasy RPG, this would be the character’s strength, agility, wisdom and so on. In my RPG, for the moment, I’ve broken it down into a few aspects that represent the avatar’s knowledge, their ‘technical’ ability, how well they can deal with stress and their EQ. 🌟But I’d like to get some input from the collective. Therefore I’d like to invite you to share with me what characteristics you think should be represented on a player’s avatar/character sheet.💡 👉 If you feel moved by the spirit of gaming and collaboration, then do drop a comment below.

🔝 Types of development in games and real-life: growth hacking principle 🔝 In game development, balancing the power of characters and players is crucial. Managing the speed of development is one of the key aspects in the early and mid-game stages. Here are three types of character development: 1️⃣ Progress 2️⃣ Regress 3️⃣ One-dimensional (Horizontal) 📈 Progress - This is the most popular type. Players perform actions and receive rewards. In the early stages, rewards are given for almost anything, sometimes even for minor actions like turning the camera or logging in. As progress is made, rewards diminish. This encourages players to strive for greater achievements. 📉 Regress - The reverse process. The most obvious example is when a character dies and loses some experience. However, there are other forms of regression. For example, if you invest in agility and hunter skills, you won’t be able to become a wizard and gain intelligence. This makes your choices significant and impactful. 🔛 One-dimensional Development - this is a less obvious type of development. It could involve taking on an additional character class that eventually equals the main class in power. This allows players to quickly unlock new mechanics and expand their gameplay options. A popular example is the sub-class system in Lineage 2, where leveling up a sub-class is faster than creating a new character, and managing resources on one character is more convenient.

You are simply being played. Our lives are increasingly being gamified. If you want people hooked on something, then gamify the experience. But who's really in control - us or the game designers? The immediate rewards, unpredictable outcomes, and status keep us coming back for more, even when it's not in our best interests. Gamification has already become an innate part of our lives. It's easy to get caught up chasing arbitrary scores and badges while losing sight of what truly matters. We are not far from becoming like pigeons in a Skinner box, mindlessly pecking buttons for hollow rewards. Put simply, we try to measure what we value, but end up valuing what we measure. But it doesn't have to be this way. We can choose which games we play and how we play them. Here are 5 things to keep in mind. 1. Play the long game. Prioritize goals that will benefit you in the long run, not just give you a quick dopamine hit. 2. Being challenged doesn't have to threaten you. Easy games might be fun in the moment, but overcoming obstacles is what helps us grow and find fulfillment. 3. Seek win-win outcomes. Instead of competing against others, look for opportunities where everyone can benefit. 4. Enjoy the journey. Focus on intrinsic motivation and the inherent satisfaction of the activity, not just the external rewards. 5. Recognize what truly matters. The most meaningful things in life - relationships, experiences, personal growth - can't be quantified or gamified. One fact was overlooked in the Skinner's experiment. Skinner’s pigeons only kept pecking the button because they were trapped in a cage — they had nothing else to do. But you are still free.
