Game Studies Starting from 12.2024 4.2025 -8.2025 / Week 1 - Week 14 Ge Xianjing / 0377636 Game Studies / Interactive Space Design Game Research Week1 Study Notes This week is the project kick-off week, and the main tasks are around project initiation, data learning, team formation and initial conception. In this lesson, we need to read all the class materials on Teams in advance 1. Using Metabolic Debuffs as Game Challenges I realized that "Debuffs" mentioned in the document can serve as engaging negative mechanics to heighten tension in the game. For example: In the glycolytic pathway, I would design a "PFK-1 Inhibition Card" that slows down energy production when ATP or citrate levels are too high (inspired by real feedback regulation). Players must strategically manage ATP usage to avoid triggering this debuff. The issue of "NAD⁺ deficiency" (–) could be transformed into a "Mitochondrial Failure Event", where the cell loses its abili...
