In the beginning there is a Game Designer (Weekly Reading 1)

The article to me came across as encouraging constantly reassuring the reader who would be game designers.(Who else would read an article about game design?)

" If only game designers can design games, and you can only be a game designer by making games, how can anyone even get started? If this is how you feel, the awnser is easy. Just say the magic words:

I am a game designer, I am a game designer, I am a game designer."

Game designers need a deep understanding not just about designing games, but an understanding about everything they take on that includes fellow team mates.
There's more to designing games than just that you must be able to understand and communicate with others by listening to your team, client audience and self.

The 5 kinds of listening


Team
Audience
Game
Client
Self
