Job SearchLooks like a bunch of work, huh? Good, that is why it is a job being a game designer and not a hobby. If it seems a bit daunting to undertake this effort in writing up your game, I have a suggestion. Practice the skill of game design by writing up the game design of an existing game. Go through this entire rigor on a game that is already successful! It is perfectly reasonable in any other profession medicine, engineering, automotive repair to practice the skills involved before moving on to practicing the profession. Even novelists can take creative writing courses and budding scriptwriters can take scriptwriting courses. So I think it is perfectly logical that a game designer should practice writing detailed game design documents by analyzing another game designer’s game.
