Abstract

This work in progress paper documents our experiences in academic game development as we shifted from custom-built game designs to a templating approach that could more economically adapt our games to meet the needs of different disciplines. We assess our previous games content and structure for its suitability to fit such an approach and start developing a framework for our future work within our specific constraints.
