My name is Emiko Charbonneau and I am a PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Central Florida. My research is in using gameplay to motivate people to do difficult tasks (in other words, things they don’t want to do).  I have made several video game prototypes using 3D user interfaces in physical therapy and fitness research.

But I’m also an avid game lover who likes to analyze gameplay and narrative decisions, so I hope some of that comes out here too.
