Master level thesis: Short survey on the subject of availability to game development/modding tools. Thread

Greetings!

We are two students from the Institute of Informatics at Umeå University in Sweden. For our master’s thesis in Human-Computer Interaction we are researching the availability to game development tools, looked at over the last couple of years. More specifically, we are studying how the access to developmental tools is affecting the online innovation democracy.

We were hoping that some of the modders and developers here would be interested in participating in our study by answering a short survey regarding this subject. The only prerequisite for participating is that you have some experience with modding and/or creating games.

The study itself only contains 11 questions and should take approximately 15 minutes to answer. Your participation is anonymous and the data collected will only be used for our current thesis. The majority of the questions are free-text based, so we appreciate as much detail as you can provide.

Participate in the survey here.

Feel free to ask questions if you have any. Thank you for your time!
