Abstract

This paper reflects on the design process for a work-in-progress AI-powered voice-controlled narrative game created by Innovation for Games and Media Enterprise (InGAME). This paper describes the steps which led to the final design decisions, and how the background research, research questions and initial prototyping may be traced through to the work-in-progress game. The design process is then reviewed for its suitability as a practice-based research and development workflow, before finally suggesting next steps the project will take.
