Gamers are ready for an era of truly spatial games, where counterintuitive design solutions like third-person AR and async/remote multiplayer, are setting the stage for ubiquitous immersive experiences only smartphones can offer. The talk offers learnings from shipping JADU, a first-of-its-kind multiplayer AR fighting game about to start its inaugural season.
Takeaway

More broadly, they will learn practical tools and mental models to create new spatial gaming experiences for mobile.
