    Study Notes

    Game Development Process

    • Game designers are responsible for creating the content and challenges in a game.

    Game Engines

    • Game engines power graphics, including 2D and 3D graphics, physics, and animations.
    • A feature of game engines is supporting collisions at a minimum.
    • Game engines are primarily created by programmers according to the traditional way of breaking up a game.

    Game Creation Aspects

    • Game systems are different from specific parameters of elements, as they encompass a broader set of rules and mechanics.
    • The primary responsibility of game designers is to define the actual game, including its rules, mechanics, and content.

    Design Decisions

    • Mutable design decisions are those that can be changed later in the development process.
    • Hard-coded decisions, on the other hand, need to be made early in the development process and are difficult to change later on.

    Game Mechanics and Content

    • Rules & Mechanics include the type of content that defines the game system, such as gravity and damage amounts.
    • The division between game mechanics and content is primarily intended for distinguishing between the game's rules and its story, art, and sound.

    Data-Driven Design

    • Data-driven design is a type of game development tool that uses data to drive the game's behavior and mechanics.
    • Game designers fill in the values for the system, such as gravity and damage amounts.
