@avantgame@doubtthestars Is it not possible to compel action through game mechanics to elicit positive impact? -
@thnkconnctchng@doubtthestars I am sure it could be but I personally don't approach game design that way. I focus more on positive emotion -
@avantgame I clearly need to read your book :) -
@thnkconnctchng I support that idea :)

@doubtthestars it has always meant that if you look at origins or term and that work. Media has my helped by lumping in games for change etc -
@avantgame Apologies, I had always took it to mean that positive use of game mechanics for change. Thanks for teaching us the difference :)
