How do you make a good video game?
There are as many answers to that questions as there are game makers, and every designer has honed their own personal set of tricks and techniques.
At GDC 2016, five accomplished game designers (Liz England, George Fan, Michael de Plater, Lee Perry, and Emily Short) joined moderator (and fellow accomplished game designer) Richard Rouse III to share a favorite rule of thumb they use when designing games.
Each was given ten minutes to explain their unique, personal practice, offering a focused look at techniques that are unconventional and may well challenge the way you think about design.
It was a talk packed with novel and useful game design concepts, one that you can now watch for free over on the official GDC YouTube channel!
