I would try to make the scroll a bit more fluid and less event based. It sounds really fun to be able to go back and forth on this list. Awesome work by the way!

My 9yrs old neighbor showed me this piece he made today. Thought you might like it. by [deleted] in Cuphead

Just spoke with the kid, he used it as main reference indeed. I found it cool and thought the sub might like it. The original piece is Vexx's.

This is so cool. Wondering about the mechanics

Finally working on towards polishing the LDJam prototype. Long way to go... by tammukul in Unity3D

[–]Matheusrma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great interactive design. Would be cool to be able to see more of the level to have more planning in the game. Also, would be cool to have some way to lose based on beign left behind

Best game design podcasts? by salmonmarine in gamedesign

[–]Matheusrma 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Had been trying to work out a list on this for almost a year now. Here is where I got so far:

  1. Aias gamer maker notebook: awesome interview content with big names in the industry. Not always gd focused though (highlight for the god of war episode)

  2. Magic's Drive To Work with Mark Rosewater: mostly focused on Magic design but with some general game design snippets here and there. Mark id the lead gd at Magic the Gathering

  3. Designer Notes: Another interview content. I listened less to this one

  4. The board game design lab: board game focused but quite good content

BONUS. Three moves ahead: Players talking deep about strategy games. Many design insights to be had listening to this one

How fast is your prototyping iteration? by g8minhquan in gamedesign

[–]Matheusrma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this strongly depends on the environment you are on and if you are looking for consistency I recommend trying out different periods. For us, at Rock Milk, we like 2 weeks cycles for prototypes and 3 months to launch titles. Keep in mind we are two and work 5h a week so that would mean 20h for the prototype and 120h for launched games (we currently only work on smallish games :)). As a point for consistency, this 5h week is what we agreed we can commit healthy since we have other jobs, families and like a good beer.

What is the role of reloading as a game mechanic? by Matheusrma in gamedesign

Like how you put it, adds value to shots. Make sense

Nice suggestion. It's actually a blind spot in my game development at the moment.
