Video game production explained !

Hi all !

I have started writing articles focusing on video game production. Concepts and recommendations to manage game projects. Including questions we can find here regarding ways of organising the development of video games.

Over the years I have had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects and it possible to identify reoccurring patterns, both good and bad. I publish these articles to share my experience of production.

The first post studies the motivations for 'production'.

I was briefly skimming through the posts on your blog and I just wanted to recommend that you change the font and coloring you are using for those images. It seriously hurt my eyes trying to read them.

 

Thanks for taking the time to comment, feedback is always appreciated to improve the content and the presentation.

The format of the "cheat sheets" info-graphics will be changed to improve legibility after I complete the first set of articles. In the meantime, all the content is also provided in plain text as part of the article itself.
