Arcade Talks: Designing for Open Worlds and the Adventures they Offer

  • The Arcade Hotel 106 Sarphatipark Amsterdam, NH, 1073 EC Netherlands (map)

Join us for an engaging talk on the magic of open-world games!

Open worlds are more than just games with large maps — they are rich landscapes filled with small adventures. Players can journey between these experiences, creating their own unique story of immersion and self-exploration. 

In this talk, we will delve into the intricate level design systems behind these adventures and explore the complexity that allows players to lose themselves in open worlds.

The speaker for the day is Lisanne Bakker. She is a level designer specialising in creating emotional impact through open-world and large map design. Lisanne focuses on narrative and serious games that address mental health, exploring emotionally complex topics through the lens of play. Lisanne has worked as a technical game designer at Liminal Game Studios, where she helped implement the world’s first AI-driven gameplay for human experiences

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from an industry leader and gain insights into the art of designing captivating open worlds!
