Game development: Game Design Document example

 

Game Design Document example


From Wikipedia:

A game design document (often abbreviated GDD) is a highly descriptive living software design document of the design for a video game. A GDD is created and edited by the development team and it is primarily used in the video game industry to organize efforts within a development team.

The document is created by the development team as a result of a collaboration between their designers, artists, and programmers as a guiding vision that is used throughout the game development process. When a game is commissioned by a game publisher to the development team, the document must be created by the development team and it is often attached to the agreement between publisher and developer; the developer has to adhere to the GDD during the game development process.
