My new paper describes my ongoing doctoral study on the "Ludonarrative Universe" model for (co)designing ludonarrative systems for Big-G game-based learning, which facilitates learning through gaming and its surrounding activities, such as pre- and post-game discussions. 1/3
Title: Designing Ludonarrative Media for Robust, Scientific, Realizable, and Adaptable Big-G Game-Based Learning: A Model and Research Plan Author: Pratama Wirya Atmaja Affiliation: Faculty of Computer Science, University of Pembangunan Nasional “Veteran” Jawa Timur, Indonesia Abstract: To meet the demands of “Big-G” GBL for complex issues (e.g., sustainability), the paper identifies four design gaps—conceptual robustness, scientific precision, technical realizability, and practical adaptability—insufficiently addressed by current methods. It proposes a “ludonarrative universe” model: a multi-dimensional system spanning nested media (supersystems), ecological counterparts (competing elements), meta-gaming layers, and experiential layers (world, storytelling, assets/UI) grounded in game-loop theory. The model claims to be comprehensive, systemic, scale-invariant, and modular, enabling early verification and validation (V&V) and agile evolution. A research plan outlines co-designed case studies, a domain-specific language, and automated V&V to test and generalize the model. Keywords: Ludonarrative media, design model, co-design, game-based learning, sustainability

My doctoral research will use the model in a case study of co-designing ludonarrative systems for Big-G GBL on sustainability. The case study's first phase on personal sustainability learning starts soon. Anyway, check out the paper! 3/3

The model explains how, as dynamical systems, ludonarrative systems can expand along the dimensions of hierarchy, ecology, metagame, and experience. In turn, the model can produce conceptually robust, scientifically precise, easily realizable, and adaptable designs. 2/3

Bloody hell, Poland, how did you come up with this vase-like chara? 🤣🤣 Since when has Poland been a top-tier player in the chara/mascot game?? 🤣🤣 #Expo2025Osaka @debraocchi.bsky.social @mondomascots.bsky.social

Kyun-chan, a shy Japanese pika disguised as a deer, is the tourism mascot for Hokkaido.
A little orange pika mascot in a deer costume emerges from behind a tree.

We need more research like this to support the use of yuru/gotouchi chara (local mascots) in Indonesia 😇😇

lerch-san.net the website's design is so good... and reminds me of the old Skifree game on Windows 3.x 🤣 luckily, there's no Yeti jumping out to eat Lerch 🤣

Man, Japanese "gotouchi kyara" (local mascots) have such a strong presence on X/Twitter that following them there has kept my "for you" feed almost free of political nonsenses and AGI hype garbage 🤣🤣
