This game is currently still in development and will evolve as the study goes on. If you're interested in the study or would like to apply as a test subject, don't hesitate to write us at contact@koboldgames.ch.
Concept Art of the Setup Space: Left, front and right of the player are the six different buttons for moving around and activating the ship's shields. A heart rate reader is sending signals to the game, controlling the pace of the game.
The game itself is about a flying in a space pirate ship on a desert planet, searching for precious gemstones.
Collecting Gemstones will get the player points. Crashing into rocks or getting attacked by hostile creatures will reduce the points.
