In game design, the most compelling experiences arise from the gaps between reality and simulation, allowing players to reflect on their actions and decisions.

Games can be both hypnotic and reflective, providing opportunities for players to analyze their experiences and improve their skills through self-reflection.

Games serve as an aesthetic form of thinking and doing, enabling players to pursue goals, solve problems, and understand systems in an engaging way.

Games exist at the intersection of logic and emotion, combining mathematical thinking with artistic expression to create meaningful experiences. Games are the aesthetic form of thinking and doing, occupying an important overlap between engineering and art.

I aim to create games that absorb players into an activity while also allowing them to reflect on their engagement and the nature of their goals.

The idea that we live in a simulation doesn't add anything meaningful; the laws of nature themselves can be seen as a computer program that governs our reality.

The idea of being in a simulation raises questions about consciousness and the nature of reality, which are complex and not easily answered.

I believe we need to balance technology with real-life experiences, as the digital realm can be more fun while real life becomes less fulfilling.

In VR, the focus should be on creating potential stories where users can interact and discover the core values of the narrative.
