Independent Research & Critical Game Design
Exploring game production, critical game design, design ethics, reflective practice, and the sociotechnical conditions that shape creative work.
Current Research
Reflective Solo-Auditing (RSA) is a practice-based methodological framework that examines ethical accountability through structured retrospective analysis of completed game production.
The framework organizes inquiry around three phases: Collection, Interpretation, and Synthesis, evaluated across four dimensions: Intention, Constraint, Impact, and Reflection.
The research is grounded in a retrospective case study of Falcon Federation Pod and examines how ethical understanding emerges through decisions, constraints, production infrastructures, and reflective inquiry.
The manuscript has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Leadership, Accountability and Ethics (JLAE), published by North American Business Press.
