Games GDD

In this blog I am going to be going through everything I have learned so far regarding GDD also known as Games Design Document.


But what is a Games design document anyway ? The easiest way of looking at it is a big page of notes which includes every bit of detail that will be required to make the game run. The GDD or games design document would include everything such as:

GDD User's Guide

- Characters

- Storyline

- Engine

- Progression

- Storyline Overview

- Pipeline Overview

- Game budget

- Project Schedule

- Scripts

- Walkthroughs

- Game Manual

- System Limitations

- Marketting System

and so much more. 

This is to help anybody that checks out the game you created have a clear understanding about your game and to have an in depth explanation before they even have to play the game. So why not list everything in the game , it will help you the final project when u need a step by step guide on how to structure out your game.

Introduction

 Introduction Good afternoon, My name is Mohammed(Moe) and today I am going to be talking a little about myself so that you can have an idea who I am. My full name is Mohammed Saw and I am a 2nd year student in Tud. I am a 22 year old student and I go to college whilst working a part time job. On the side I tend to do many different things , making YouTube videos being the biggest one.  I have been editing videos for close to 4 years and I could say that I have really found it to be one of my greater hobbies. After some time I decided to create my own channel where I post various different videos for all moods and vibes.  Here is a link to go check out my channel -  https://www.youtube.com/c/IAmSpyro Unfortunately for me I am repeating the module again this year so with that being said I think my most enjoyable module was the digital video module. It touched on many different things and featured a completely different editing software that I had never used before , but it was definitel

My Project Prototype (First Playable)

  In this blog i am going to be discussing my recent experience creating my project game in Unity Hub. As i have talked about in my recent blogs Unity is something i find very difficult but yet quite fun at the same time. This week i finally got my Project up and running and i must say i am very glad to have done so. At first i came in pretty scared about what to do and how i was going to start off this project. Unsure and unaware i remembered everything i would need to build the game was already taught to me through the tutorials and all that was left was for me to find the right guide and i was ready to go. (Screenshot directly from my Unity project) This is a screenshot on how far i have come from the beginning of my project. When i began this project i knew that there was two things i needed. The game mechanics and the props. The rest i could pilot through the tutorial videos done beforehand. So going ahead anyways i was able to create the key fundamentals needed for this game to w

Game Idea Research

  Game Idea Research Now that we are here i want to talk to you about what i have decided going forward in my project. I wish to carry out and endless game for my project.  If you did not get to see my Game Brainstorm Blog where i talked about all my ideas basically what i mean by and endless game is a game that has no end and runs on high score to make up for not having an event to look forward too. A well known example of this as mentioned before are our very own "Temple Run" and "Subway Surfer". I chose this because growing up i was a very competitive type gamer and did not really care much for beating levels and getting to the end of the game but rather pushing myself to beat high scores whether it be online or against my friends score. So i think it's only fitting i create one of my own.  (Image from  here ) The game mechanics i have thought would work great for this are the mechanics of Subway Surfer as it has all the necessary moving mechanics needed to p
