New Rule

After much impetus from respected game designers and developers, my peers, and my professors, I’m creating this game design blog to catalogue my thoughts on game design, game development, and the state of the games industry. I figure it’ll be fairly free-form, like the majority of blogs maintained by working game designers–thoughts on game design principles and practices, reactions to games and game design articles, notes on my own projects and schoolwork, and so on.

One thing I do intend to use it for, however, is to host a weekly game design. Inspired by the examples of various designers, the Experimental Gameplay projects at USC and Carnegie-Mellon, my fellow 2007 GDC Scholar Scott Jon Siegel’s “Game Design Friday” column at the Escapist, and the advice of my professor Brenda Brathwaite, I’m going to try and make a new game every Sunday and post the design here. So, without further introduction, here follows the blog!
