Game Simulation

Reading this topic

Start with the behavior you want a player to understand: movement, cause and effect, a responsive environment or a changing challenge. The articles here approach simulation through game systems and production choices. As you read, separate what needs to look convincing from what needs to follow a precise rule. Consider the target device, the controls and the feedback that explains each action. A focused prototype can help your team review those decisions before committing to a larger world, more detailed assets or a wider set of interactions.
