南安普顿大学项目 Board Game Design 卡牌游戏设计

Board Game for MLTCs Community （插画）- Designed by Xiaoya Hou

As the Board Game Designer for this project, I played a pivotal role in developing a game tailored to the needs of individuals living with Multiple Long-Term Conditions (MLTCs). Through active participation in event sessions and direct engagement with the MLTCs community, I gained invaluable insights into their daily challenges, emotions, and needs. Collaborating closely with researchers, I utilized this feedback to inform the design process, ensuring the game was not only enjoyable but also a meaningful tool for fostering positive conversations and mental well-being.

作为该项目的棋盘游戏设计师，在开发一款针对多重长期病症（MLTCs）患者需求的游戏过程中发挥了关键作用。通过积极参与活动和直接与 MLTCs 社区接触，我对他们的日常挑战、情绪和需求有了宝贵的了解。在与研究人员密切合作的过程中，我利用这些反馈意见为设计过程提供信息，确保游戏不仅令人愉悦，而且还是促进积极对话和心理健康的有意义的工具。

根据与母校南安普顿大学的Sian Holt博士的跟进，社区中的患者们对卡牌游戏的对话设计表示高度满意，并计划进一步升级卡牌设计，以便未来更多社区用户使用。作为一名设计师，能够通过设计改善人们的生活、帮助他们提升生活质量，是我追求成为设计师的重要动力之一。
