Paper Abstract:
|
In this paper we describe an approach to software design where we use a formalistic structure of the Monomyth, use it as a basis for forming the requirements for a game of collaborative storytelling and implement a game based on these requirements. The resulting game is an open game allowing the users a wide range of freedom and few imposed restrictions for telling their stories. Based on the results of our approach we argue that the approach is generic in the sense that it is also applicable for other narrative structures. |
