Chat Corner AMA at 19 - 20 with Emma Varjo
Emma leads UX and Design and has worked across AA and AAA console and PC games, including the Trine series and Overwatch 2. She's spent her career at the intersection of design and research, figuring out how to turn player feedback into better games, and she's especially passionate about accessibility. Ask her anything about the cross section of UX and game design, research, facilitation, or making games work for more people.
Topics: UX/game design, user research, accessibility, facilitation/alignment
ACCESSIBILITY:
At IGDA Helsinki we strive for making our events accessible for everyone. We kindly ask all attendees to stay away from using strong perfumes or similar fragrances. The Meetups can be crowded at times, meaning that the sound volume can also become rather loud.
Maxine is wheelchair accessible. There's a few steps at the entrance, for that please ask security at the cloakroom for a ramp. Accessible toilet can be found at the back of the space.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding any type of accessibility of our Meetups, then please contact helsinki@igda.fi and we will do our best to assist you. We also have an accessibility contact present at the Meetup until 19:00. They can be found near the entrance and are ready to assist with any accessibility-related matters!
Reminder that IGDA Meetups use the THE FINNISH GAME INDUSTRY Code of Conduct!
