Abstract

In Interactive Digital Storytelling (IDS), new design processes are needed for authors to fully embrace the emergent properties of this dynamic novel medium. As a counterpart to traditional explicit authoring in storytelling, "implicit creation" is introduced as a conceptual framework. By describing the development steps of a specific IDS application -- the Killer Phrase game -- and starting out with explicit methods, the conditions for adding implicit creation are discussed, which lead to suggestions for future research
