I'll be at GDC next week. My company, @designoriented, is fusing game design principles with learning principles based on the modern scientific literature on neuroplasticity. The untapped potential is huge.
DM me if you want to meet up!

My next book 'Speed Boost: The Hidden Secrets Behind Arcade Racing Design' is complete and should go live in the next week. It'll be another digital release (pdf, mobi, and epub). After sitting on this book for so long, it'll be nice to finally share it with the world. Get hype!

Here's the scale. The higher the number the more procgen there is to the level design. Look at the scale. Pick a number. Think of a game. And post your answer. The discussion is happening on our discord in the # daily-challenges channel. designoriented.net/#do-disco… (2/2)

The art of #leveldesign is more than just making the level "unique" and "playable." What's important is the consistency of the play experience and the ideas that are communicated. The range, clarity, and complexity of these ideas can be immense. So...(1/2)

When I see "rogue-lite" I interpret that as "gameplay-lite" or "I don't understand level design". Procedural #leveldesign is an ineffective tech solution for an artistic problem. It's the result of thinking in small bits instead of bigger pictures (e.g. levels). #gamedesign

DtotD: This Craft of Mine - Day(3!) / Night Cylces
Great discussion just in time for Halloween over at discord.gg/wwRSq3x.
One of my favorite examples is the three different forms of Lycanroc that evolve into different versions based on the time of day.

DtotD(day 2): Crafting Systems
What’s the difference between currency and a crafting system? At first glance the answer is simple.
Look at this seafood menu
🐟 = $4
🦀 = $10
🐙 = $8
You’d need four $ currency ($$$$) to buy some 🐟

If you missed our Sonic Design topic of the Day last week you can catch the recap here.
It's a shame that the tenets of Sonic design didn't live on. Do you think that's Sonic's design has a place in modern gaming?

MAXIMUM POWER!!! The #DesignSpace of #MegaMan9 includes some powerful weapons. You can start to see some of the different roles they fill as you look at their direction, speed, and duration.

Mega Man 10 baby! #designspace is such a high-level discussion topic. Images like this make it so much more intuitive. You can see that each weapon moves differently. That's not even considering their different properties!
Mega Man 10 has a diverse set of weapons that can be used in a variety of interesting ways. Here they are all layered together!
