Description
Recorded at Metatopia 2023
Presented by Sydney Engelstein and Geoffrey Engelstein
Sydney has taken close to a thousand pitches for Indie Game Studios. Geoff has taught game design and helped designers improve their prototypes for over a decade. Between them they see the same issues with designs over and over again, particularly with newer designers. In this seminar, they will share with you the top things that are wrong with your game, based on this hard won experience. They guess there's a slight chance you've avoided a few of these issues, but probably not. And let's face it - you won't know unless you attend.
NOTE: An insufficiently edited version of this panel was posted earlier, but this is the corrected version for your enjoyment.
