    Fun cheats:
    -In Bioshock, when the player recieves lethal damage, he gets a few seconds of god mode, leading to more "barely survived" moments.
    -In Gears of War, the last bullet in a magazine deals 3x damage, leading to more "barely defended myself" moments.

    When I was 10 I began learning c++ and when I got into high-school I acquired java and SQl after attempting to learn game development I realised that it's not even the coding that's hard. It's making your own assets and visuals. Unlike software development which is just mostly pure code, game development requires much more than just scripting

      Well, you can easy download many materials/models for free. Main hard thing is engine - what takes your 3D model and manages all it's triangles, textures, collision, light, etc. That's why good engine costs millions! Practically impossible to write by loner.

      I have the exact opposite problem… I have lots of artistic ideas that I consider a solid 5/10 but I’ve got no coding experience. And when I did get to go to an online class to learn Python, I got lost and absolutely confused and didn’t learn ANYTHING. Nevertheless, I cried 90% during (and after!) those classes

    I like the three pillars.. I made 200 original games in the past 35 years. Possibly 30 I´d consider good ones.
    And it is very easy to think of exceptions. It might be part of the appeal not to communicate something clearly (for instance in a hacker game or an alice in wonderland game), the player might start thinking differently halfway through the game (or actually learn something), maybe this was what you intended etc etc.
    Others say the holy grail of gamedesign is to get an emotional response from the player (any response, so hate or fear works too..) I have watched a flood of things people say about games, gamedesign etc appear. Even the vocation of game-designer and the seperation of design/art/development.
    I have yet to figure out one thing you can truly say for all games. Even for all games I made myself. Like most of these lists of rules for gamedesign, this is mostly true for most games.
    Still useful, because 9 out of 10 games you'll make, there is some truth in this. And it´s always good to know which rules you are breaking now.
    GameDesign has changed a lot in the last 35 years and one of the things that changed is that people overthink making games. It´s like with all the rules of fillm making. Great guidelines.. But follow them and you end up with something soulless, that might make you money, but...
    Games just happened for me, most of the time. If I have one advice, it´s: be curious, be original,
    but don´t try to be original. If you can do that, you figured it out.
    If you are succesful, doing that.. that´s a nice bonus. I was moderately succesful for a while, but when I started to second guess myself, lots of the fun drained out of it.
    So take it from a hasbin :) Just make a few games and see where it leads you, then you can write a book about it later.

    My whole family says how good I am at drawing and said I should put it to use, that’s how I got the idea to try game design. I don’t have any equipment yet, I’m only 14. But my dad it’s helping me slowly to get to my goal
    Edit: ok so I’m now 15 and Ik what the reply r on about, some of your are saying it’s about ideas and others are saying you have to be really good at art. I agree about the having good ideas and that and I’m currently thinking of ideas that would be good and fun to play, I’m also getting much better with my art. I’m doing my GCSES soon and once I do them I’m off to college. The college I want to go to has a course all on Game Design which is perfect 👍. If I do get to do this course it would give me a lot more ideas on what I need to work on, I’m also gonna take an art course to improve my art whilst doing game design bc Ik that will help me.

    It's so great to see you talk about game design, I really think you should make a separate video about each one of those themes. I see a lot of developers that know how to make games but don't really know how to make them fun, and if you can teach them that, you'll be one step ahead of pretty much every channel like yours.

    It may be overwhelming for someone just starting out. But actually, you are not saying that we have to be expert on all of these, but mentioning important aspects of each. For example, the part of rules and the events in the game was great, and even though it seems obvious, i never thought about that. I don't make games myself though, but i find game making incredibly interesting, and difficult.

      @gadgetboyplaysmc 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      No way around it bro. Can't really give substantial advice bc I was particularly better at design and really bad at logic. But I learned how to be good at designing by literally copying copying copying. Until I got better.
      Here's a little outline on how you should practice:
      1. Find a unique piece of artwork/game/UI/concept art everyday(if you want to practice everyday)
      2. Copy
      3. Rinse and repeat.
      There's some wonder about copying and I think it should be studied more with pedagogy too. You get a lot of insights from just literally copying. It's like not knowing how to solve a math problem and when you write it down your brain usually catches up and gets how things went where.
      Best of luck!

      I'm currently reading Level Up! by Scott Rogers (second edition). I'm still towards the beginning but iti does look interesting. There are plenty of other good books about Game Design but this one is apparently more pratical and less theoretical.
      You can read, for starters, but will come a time you will have to go and design/make a game.
      You will fail, of course, but as in IT, the good thing is to fail fast and often, you will eventually end up with something not too crass.

I have completed it 2-3 times and still think that it really is a great game to play even compared to any other high graphics game. I have not yet played GTA 5 or anything, but I definitley think that except graphics any game needs a purpose/storyline or else, it becomes just less appealing to play.

To really begin with, how to choose the atributes for the units and what to avoid... That's pretty hard...

    @misterbeach8826 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    but bear in mind that brackeys is not a game dev, but a game dev tutorial creator. those "tips" are not even basics, but generalizations. i strongly suggest to either work on a bigger game, take game design lectures, or study game design books if you want to become a good game designer. 4 tips: 1) most game devs/artists do not know how to design games, which is due to specialization. the more you work in aaa and with very good game designers, the more humble you get. 2) secondly, watch your game list. what are you playing, and why? those game types/genres should be your first game. a major reason why almost all indie games are crap and fail is because the devs do not play those game types themselves. if you are not into your own game genre, you do not get the details, i.e. that make bf5 different to cod, right? or the difference between rimworld, prison architect and, uh, dwarf fortress. 3) a theme is not a game. a sci-fi game with aliens and spaceships is not a game, it is just a theme. a game has mechanics that work like a clockwork, that must by engaging, rewarding (or not), and fun. fun can be painful, hurting, disturbing, but it has to be fun. 4) do not listen to people that did not finish commercially successful games before. the last point is crucial. why did no man's sky fail? it did not fail in sales, but it failed in its potential and among fans. so, why? if you solve this question for everybody, you are a good game designer. if not, you are likely to fail. nms is a good example because everything mentioned in this video was there -- just not a good game design.

    From my point of view I consider almost a Game is simply/mainly about THE GAME which is mainly made of gameplay and game-feel, to be always constrained by 3 layers almost equivilant to the foundation pillars you mentioned, which are Mechanics, Dynamics, and Aesthetics noting that Mechanics are the core base of such pyramid.
    Aesthetics indeed are important but note that as much as they should look/feel good, they also must function good as a layer which add more depth to the mechanics layer throughout game dynamics layer: for instance, check Splatoon a great game made by Nintendo, or Minecraft as a more known case here, the mechanics + aesthetics merge to generate a very dynamic game experience and set a unique well themed game tonality.
    In my openion, GAME DESIGN is about the process as any other kind of design and not only the objective, yet I agree that to do so an objective is mostly required but note a game like Tremble Run or Piano Tiles: I hate the fact such games being mainly dependent on Skinner boxes, and lacking a gameplay depth but still are defined as games with no defined winning condition, yet only losing condition.
    Game objectives aren't everything, yet are important in many cases; however, I appreciate the way you conducted the topic.
    !HERE IS A CHALLENGE!
    Can you design/develop a game in which losing is winning, while winning is losing; in other words, can you make a game which you must win to lose and vice versa!!?
    Doing so maybe illustrate my point that a game is not as much about the objective as it is about process to be defined by the three layers I mentioned earlier!!

    Brackey bro start a series on your channel GAME REVIEW.
    In which you play and review free games.
    Every gamer would love to watch it.

    1) download Chris Taylors game design doc template
    2) don't touch your tools (unity, blender, ue4, PS, whatever) until you've written your gdd.
    Alternative: set up a local wiki server and build your gdd there.

    Hi there! Great video! Both entertaining and educational (the sweet spot for dopaminergic reinforcement of short term memory - woohoo!) So I'm a super-noob just starting in the game design world (quite literally... this is the first video that popped up when I googled "game design" about 10 minutes ago...) and I'd like to ask: In addition to the c++ recommendation, could you please share which softwares you were using to create prototypes, animations, & 3D world modeling when bringing gaming concepts to life? Thank you in advance! Much appreciated.
