Abstract

This paper introduces an immersive game interface called a well-tep. A well-tep is made based on a stepper which is sporting goods for home envi-ronment and used for moving a game character back and forward in the game. To operate the well-tep, a game player only needs to walk on the well-tep and use two hand-held switches to change direction. Spatial sound is applied to items which a game character will face in the game. An item emits sound diffe-rently according to where a character stares. The paper explains how they work in the game and potential uses for a well-tep.
