ECOLOGICAL systems theory - Abstract
Press Start is an open access student journal that has been publishing research articles and book reviews in the field of game studies for the past ten years. The journal aims to provide students from various disciplines with an outlet for their games-related work and to foster confidence in their writing. In the latest issue, articles explore topics such as game resumes, refractive nostalgia in video games, the design philosophy of Minecraft, the pedagogical potential of video game volcanoes, and the analysis of a role-playing computer game using ecological systems theory. The issue also includes book reviews that contribute to game studies, media archeology, and aesthetics. The journal is always accepting submissions and looking for peer reviewers.
