We've got a great HL-GDD by this point but it doesn't even include the fullВ set of documentation that a full game production will need. A writer, if the game has story or creative writing around quests, achievements, etc.Visual effects artist / engineer, who can create 'technical art' and cool interface effects.

An audio designer to compose or source the music and sound effects.A net-ops engineer to set up the cloud provider.If the game has original environments or characters we'll also want a concept artist or two.A user interface artist to create the look of all screens, buttons, popups, etc.A back-end engineer if there are any multiplayer, social, or cloud features.A Quality Assurance (QA) lead to test the game out.A lead artist - a 2D or 3D specialist, depending on the game style.An art director to lead the art team and keep a vision in mind.A front-end engineer, with expertise in Unity (if a mobile game) or HTML5 (if a web game).For a free to play game with an advanced systems, we need a specialized system designer who can figure out all of the variables in the city building, combat, or wait times for goods to harvest. A game designer to craft any levels or do any game balancing.A producer to help keep all on track and work with the client to make sure the delivery is consistent and meets expectations.A 'team' may be as small as one engineer, with the art and audio purchased from ones of the many great online asset stores.ДЄ typical casual game will have a team of about six core folks: Team, Schedule, and BudgetД«ased on the design, we'll have a clear idea of how many people are needed to build the game you want. First Time ExperienceДetails of how a new player learns your game. Most level-based games have a way for designers to try out various ideas, play-test them, and share them with others.

We also need a clear idea of the LEVEL DESIGN TOOLS that will need to be built. We'll need a bunch of well-selected images or references that show off the main game theme. We prefer a few Google Slides or PowerPoint slides withВ Mood BoardsВ - screen shots lifted from similar games or other art found online. The goal here is to convey the level of quality and visual style that the game wants to hit. What is the main platform the game will run on?ДЄnd how will this game make money? What is its business model? So many aspects stem from this decision. Helpful here are examples of what other games this is similar to but how this title is unique. When we create a game design document it has these sections and formats: High Level VisionДЄ brief 'elevator pitch' with the big vision. When it comes to GDDs, pictures are really worth 1,000 words.ДЄnd when it comes to system design and understanding how variables fit together, the value of spreadsheets is, well, incalculable. Words aren't the most efficient way to express visual or mathematical concepts - and games, primarily, are a visual medium combined with numerical systems. While some folks are excellent writers and can convey detail in a crisp manner, most folks tend to ramble on when trying to get into the weeds and they wind up creating a bramble of ambiguous thorniness. Volume upon volume full of WORDY WORDS is usually not so useful. Each member of the team needs to understand the aspect he or she is responsible for and be able to visualize the title in action before a single pixel is programmed on screen.

You can read more about our take on why game costs vary like crazy, but, in brief, trying to price out a project without a HL-GDD is like planning to construct a house without blueprints or filming a movie without a screenplay - doable but generally with overblown budgets and uneven results. To figure that out, aВ High Level Game Design DocumentВ (HL-GDD) is essential. In order to give you an accurate idea of this cost we first need a full and clear understanding of the talent and effort involved. While we adore games here at Double CoconutВ and would probably make 'em for nothing if we could, we need to charge a modest sum to cover our time.
