MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota Games are serious business at Seraph7 Studios, located inside the Finnovation Lab above Finnegans Brewery & Taproom.
This is the home base of Jules Porter, who is developing a video game that she hopes will create a paradigm shift. I actually believe that video games have a lot to offer when it comes to what we can do with social justice, how we can build empathy in one another, said Porter.
She explained, In video games you actually play through the shoes of another person for like 60 to 100 hours. You get to see how your experiences shape the world, how your decisions kind of transform things and how people respond to the character as a result.
