students, i cannot stress this enough, please stop including the 100-page monolithic design doc for a nonexistent-but-hypothetical game in your portfolio. real game studios haven't done these since like 2007. if your professor is having you write these, ask for your money back
super cool things on the other hand: - a one-pager doc for a feature in a game you made, which you used to help your team get on the same page - a blog post about iterations you went through for some bit of content, again, on a game you made - "whitebox vs. final" screenshots
like tbh a huge part of being in design is writing docs— that part is real! but often they’re short and used to align your teammates on direction for a specific feature or mechanic. sometimes you’ll rework them many times; sometimes you’ll only touch them once, as proposals.
some replies have asked what design documentation DOES look like. i think every designer does it a bit differently? here's a fake and extremely dumb one i wrote as an example. i like to start with goals, then go into design, then describe measurable behavior outcomes.pic.twitter.com/EXstaB3Vaq
I once signed onto a project where I was immediately confronted with a 160 page lore bible. I cannot tell you how far my heart sank in that moment
Was it still in the original Mead notebook from their 8th grade science class or
so if i'm not a student anymore, i can still include it right?
So currently on my resume I have a link to my medium account where I write articles about game design. Would it be better to try link a specific one that I feel is the strongest/most relevant?
“Whatever shows off your best work the fastest” is generally a good rule of thumb, so i’d say yes
ask for your money back even if your professor isn't asking for this because even if there is good information to be learned college is waaayy over-priced lol
