FUNDAMENTALS OF GAME DESIGN, SECOND EDITION

The Elements of Game Design

Part One of Fundamentals of Game Design examines the essential principles of designing video games. The first chapter proposes a philosophy of what video games are and how they entertain. Chapter 2 explains several important design concepts and introduces the player-centric approach to the process of game design itself.

It also describes several aspects of design in the commercial environ­ment, including documents used and job roles. Chapter 3 describes how to get from the initial “great idea” stage to a formal game con­cept that is detailed enough to elaborate into a complete design.

The remaining chapters of Part One are devoted to specific aspects of video games that you will encounter when you're designing them. They are organized by subject matter: game worlds, creative play, character design, storytelling, user interface design, gameplay, core mechanics, game balancing, and level design. These chapters are presented in an order that runs approximately from the most aesthetically creative activities to the most practical and functional.
