Temporality of videogames

The thesis is primarily focused on researching the ways of feeling and perceiving time in videogames through analysis and interpretation of chosen works. Secondly, it uses existing research from a broad spectrum of areas from game studies to social aspects of new media to help its analysis. Every chapter presents a certain temporal phenomenon or multiple temporal phenomena. It tries to find how we can, in the context of player experience and videogame interpretation, perceive unique effects of the selected phenomenon, if we are confronted with it in a videogame. The main question being asked by the work is whether videogames as a medium bring any new, unique factors to the existing debate on temporality, or just extend those already known from other types of media
