This document provides guidance on creating a game design document. It suggests including a core statement describing the working title and genre of the game. It also recommends outlining the main features and verbs players can use. The document proposes defining the game's philosophy by describing what will be said on its tombstone. It further suggests using card sorting to identify the game's main functional areas and organizing those areas into appendices, such as for story, technical aspects, sounds, levels, and artwork. Finally, it proposes hosting the game design document on a wiki for easy editing and sharing.

The #1 Skill for Game Designers and How to Practice ItRoberto Dillon
The presentation I gave at the Korea Games Conference 2014, discussing the importance of having a proper communication methodology in game design (specifically the AGE and 6-11 Framework, which are also integrated in the One Page GDD format proposed by Stone Librande).
Since the narrative has a fundamental role for engagement in games, the design of the gameplay cannot underestimate a prerequisite of aesthetic coherence: the player's actions in the game can't conflict with those of avatar in the story.
Because of this, the theme of the game, which is the semantic nucleus of experience, must be the permanent reference of design.
In this game design talk, Vincenzo Santalucia, game/narrative designer of the official game of Netflix series Suburra, tells about the approach and the design process followed to construct a ludonarrative experience as much as possible recognizable and coherent.
From the April 21st Webinar on “Robots are eating the Building: Narrative for Increased Engagement”
Andy Petroski & Charles Palmer
Stories in TV and movies are mainly meant to entertain. A story for learning should be entertaining, but also needs to be functional. The story needs to draw the players into the experience and create a bridge between characters, media elements, digital activities, and the interactive elements. A story is not only important for immediate motivation, engagement, and purpose. It’s also important for long-term learning and behavior change. Stories connect with our emotions, something that is usually lacking from traditional training, performance change, or employee engagement initiatives. Emotional experiences are memorable experiences.
Join this session to explore stories for learning within the context of Alternate Reality Games (ARGs). ARGs combine real-world experience with fictional clues, puzzles and communication in a collaborative game format. The story-based and problem-based experience promotes the use of online resources, collaboration among game players, and critical thinking related to the storyline and problem-based activities.
This is the short presentation introducing into the gamification hype. It is the intellectual junk for our left brains that does not explain what happens in the GAME DESIGN LAB but calms down our ratio. Have fun and start playing for real!

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
