Hi,

I'm excited to share a research study using Bitsy!

I'm Max Levine, a PhD student in the Human-Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon University. I'm conducting a research study exploring how constraints affect creativity in game creation.

Participants will create games using a modified version of Bitsy, play games created by other participants, and provide feedback on their experience. Participants who create games will be able to download copies of the games they create.

The study can be completed remotely and may be completed over multiple sessions. Participants must be adults (18 years or older). There is no monetary compensation for participating. If you are interested, you can begin the study here:

Thanks for your interest!
