The international conference on the Foundations of Digital Games (FDG)
is a focal point for academic efforts in all areas of research and
education involving games, game technologies, gameplay, and game
design. The goal of the conference is the advancement of the study of
digital games, including new game technologies, capabilities, designs,

The conference will also host workshops in emerging areas, interactive
games and technology demos, and a doctoral consortium. We encourage
high-quality submissions in areas including, but not limited to:

game technologies (engines, frameworks, graphics, networking, animation)
interaction and experience (game interfaces, player metrics, modeling
player experience)
artificial intelligence for games (agents, motion/camera planning,
navigation, adaptivity, content creation, dialog, authoring tools)
serious games (building and evaluating games for a purpose, learning in games)
game education (preparing students to design and develop games)
game design (methods, techniques, studies)
game studies (games, players, and their role in society and culture;
