kibblesticks Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 It's great you've written a full design document. A few notes: The doc could do with a bit of a grammar and formatting check. Better spacing and punctuation, underlined or bold subheadings. Maybe take a look at some of these example documents from real games (they're in a list at the bottom of the article). For example, your first paragraph, which should hook the reader and convince them of your professionalism, is a long confusing sentence: The game will be more into an anti-care bear game which would be a driving factor inside the game itself that pushes forward with making groups and clans that would shape the economy and the whole system, but it doesn't mean that we would leave behind the lone players at a disadvantage, we would be aiming for a better group experience and have contents for single player stuff as well. What is "anti-care bear"? You'll get a better response if you can prove your credentials as game devs too. Either posting previous work, or including greybox screenshots or concept art of your idea. Even better would be a greybox or video mock-up to demonstrate your gameplay. At the very least your want diagrams and pictures in your document to show how the mechanics work. It's nearly impossible to imagine how a game will play from reading lengthy paragraphs - much better to show as well as tell. If you're interested, this is a great game design book that explains how to make design documents that are convincing to investors. It's obvious you've put a lot of thought into your design so good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
