Abstract

Abstract. Player-facing, retrospective gameplay visualizations help
players track progress and learn from others. Visualizations of a user’s
step by step process, may be able to advance retrospective visualization.
However, we currently do not know how players make meaning from
process visualizations of game data. In this work, we take a first step
towards addressing this gap by examining how players make meaning
from process visualizations of other players’ gameplay. We identify two
interpretation methods comprised of six techniques and discuss what
these results mean for future use of player-facing process visualizations.
