First day started well with a world cafe, fruitful discussions and a wonderful panel in the morning. What an honour to be able to facilitate this panel! Thank you 🙏🏽 #galaconf2024 SeriousGamesSociety

✨And the first day is over! We had a great time such as our first World Cafe where many topics were discussed, from serious games and AI, serious games for better futures, methodologies and designing choices in serious games, including 'breaking' existing systems

We had two great paper sessions, chaired by Kristina Risley and Pierpaolo Dondio, our program is here conf.seriousgamessociety.org/gala-2024-prog… , and we will be sharing the proceedings very soon!

We also had a fantastic keynote from Alessandro Canossa, Senior User Researcher and Data Scientist at Ubisoft. Alessandro talked about many aspects and facets of player modelling, including an upcoming research paper on cultural clusters and differences - very inspiring 🌟
