STEP 2: Design Playable Prototype

MAIN QUEST
STEP 2: Design Playable Prototype

After generating a few ideas for your Main Quest, review them (and the feedback received) and select the one you wish to develop further.

It is time to create a prototype of your game. You may find it useful to review the section of on prototyping. Remember that you can make a prototype in about 15 minutes – it doesn’t have to be pretty and it doesn’t even have to be complete (yet), but it does need to be at the point where you can sit down and play it by yourself.

Follow these steps to keep you on track with your project:

  • Create a playable prototype
  • Play the game by yourself (and document any problems or questions you encountered)
  • Write down the 'official' rules
