XIMPEL Interactive Video - between narrative(s) and game play
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present the XIMPEL interactive video platform. XIMPEL has been developed for the Clima Futura climate game, in which we use interactive video as a basis for scenario-driven games, with additional mini-games for elaborating on specific topics or tasks that arise during game play. XIMPEL has also been deployed in education, for creating short viral videos which allow for further interactive explorations. In this paper we will discuss the relation of XIMPEL with the Clima Futura game concept(s), describe the XIMPEL Interactive Video Format, and discuss the use of scenarios and storygraphs, in particular from the perspective of what interactive cinema and games have in common. We will also look at how the interactive video format can be deployed for scoring and diagnostics to provide meaningful feedback to the user, and the role argumentation rethorics can play in structuring information and interaction.
