MISSIONS
Game design : From concept to game
Combat system, how to win/lose, etc.
Game design : Game design document (GDD)
Tuning for powers, bonuses. Settings for the combat system, lots of tuning values. Description of each gameplay element.
Game design – UI – Art : Interface
Project Management : Remote work with a sound designer and composer
As usual, I’ve got a central position between art, sound and the development team. But this time the sound designer couldn’t be with us. So I had to make sure that no information were lost between him and the development team.
I created a sound list for every sounds and music as a communication tool.
Project Management : Create and update all the projects documents on Google Drive
Tasks lists, GDD, sound list,etc. I created those documents, updated them (and I made sure that everyone was reading them).
