Challenge: Can you NOT win?
Tesh put forth the hypothesis that you can have challenge without risk - risk is like a seperate thing, like oxygen is seperate from hydrogen (...though you can't have water without it...).
So, talk or perhaps make a game and let that do the walking for me!? Introducing proof of (bad) concept!
The bullets, they head toward a ship you can move around. What will you do? If you don't happen to do anything, does it matter at all?
Can you win? Can you not win?

Interesting ...
ReplyDeleteGive the idea of a game in which the player does one error and he cannot win, he can NEVER win anymore (without restarting the game from the beginning).
But even if he cannot win, he has a pleasant gaming experience anyway, so he continues and doesnt restart immediately.
