Ok, can we talk about #ethics, “anti #darkpatterns” (aka #UX), & child protection NOW instead of waiting for issues to happen?

Everyone in #gamedev needs to watch this video. If we don't care about the outsourcing labor conditions, we are part of the problem. Another thing to add to https://t.co/bawHJwTh6g... So much to do to raise the #ethics bar in our industry...

[Celia Hodent @CeliaHodent]

Coincidentally, our panel (with @geogrify @lolkat @Online_Citizen) at @G4C about #ethics in #gamedev and the https://t.co/bawHJwTh6g initiative announcement is now on youtube https://t.co/M5dLo0b70b

@LapollaMatthew @WY_Tang Were your findings published in a peer-reviewed journal? If so, could you please send us the pdf? Lastly, please don't hesitate to give your input by filling the form on https://t.co/9Fv9TDufpU. Thanks!

@WY_Tang @LapollaMatthew Congrats, Matt! What's your thesis about? We're currently gathering research on disruptive behavior, inclusion, dark patterns, etc. in order to propose evidence-based guidelines to improve ethics in games.

[Ethical Games @EthicalGamesOrg]

To sum up: we have a lot of work ahead of us. We want to start by identifying academics to lead the way (to make it as evidence-based & unbiased as possible), putting together a steering committee, then organizing the work & digesting everyone's feedback. Next update ~late Sept🙂

Now, wasn't that the most vibrant, exciting and fun panel in this @Official_GDC 2020? One hour was definitely not enough. Kudos to @CeliaHodent @geogrify @lolkat and Carlos.

The discussion should definitely go ahead!

@DavidLibeau Hi David, thanks for your feedback. We are just a few volunteers kicking off this initiative, not an org or a company. So we are using the free but flawed tools at our disposal to communicate and gather feedback. Which illustrates to the need for better ethics with platforms ;).

[Celia Hodent @CeliaHodent]

Today at 1pm PT we are recording our #ethics in #gamedev panel for #GDC summer. If you have questions for us regarding this initiative, please reply to this tweet so we can address your question during the recording. Thx!

@FerryDanini @CeliaHodent We definitely need the help of ethicists!! 😊

[Ethical Games @EthicalGamesOrg]

Thanks everyone for your interest! We already received a lot of feedback & need time to digest it (+ get back to you if you gave us your info). Thanks for your patience!
Reiterating that this is just a 1st draft, not the final code. That's why it needs work, with your help. 😉
