| Short Description | This hands-on design workshop is all about building worlds and systems together. First we will invent a fictional world and then figure out how to express its characters through game mechanics. |
| Long Description | At the start of this hands-on game design workshop, we will co-create a small town that has been overrun by zombies. Using character relationships to scaffold our world-building, we will take individual characters and begin to design custom game mechanics that express their unique personalities. This multifaceted session provides useful tools for building out the details of any fictional world. It also addresses core game design challenges, including controlling the pace of a game and leveraging clever mechanics to express story and theme. Join us for an intense session where we all get to practice and learn key game design skills and methods. |
