Designed by Dr. Costantino Oliva (Institute of Digital Games, University of Malta),“Night Parade of 100 Demons” is a research-oriented mobile game designed to support research on musical improvisation. Starring the popular Japanese yokai creatures, it consists of four minigames, affording different forms of extemporaneous musicality. While improvisation within music-oriented digital games remain underexplored, "Night Parade of 100 Demons" encourages players to experiment with musical possibilities, without being constrained by traditional game-like structures (such as winning or losing conditions). The game intends to deliberately stimulate players’ perspective to an improvisatory musical direction, making evident the extemporaneous musical possibilities connected with general digital game engagement.
