Abstract
The field of electronic games is a great experimental area that contributes to the implementation of new technologies in a variety of applications. This article explores the field of mixed reality through the use of physical computing for the development of the electronic game Inside. In such an interactive environment, the physical and the virtual worlds coexist and interact with each other. A user can alter the virtual world's characteristics through a special controller designed for the game that contains electronic components that can sense real-world properties. The attention of the user is not focused only on the screen but also on the controller through which a two-way interaction is achieved. A virtual environment created by a game engine can receive messages from the controller and vice versa. Changes on the properties of the virtual world can be communicated to the controller aiming at the alteration of the characteristics of the physical world. As a result, the user experiences an immersion in an environment in which real and virtual objects coexist.
