Playing By Design is an introductory blog to the fascinating world of game design. The goal is to provide weekly analytical content that anyone can learn from. Whether you want to get into game design or are just curious about the thoughts and decisions that go into games, this is the perfect place to learn about and discuss games!
Although game design is such a large and complex topic, the purpose of this blog is to look more at the basics and introductory concepts of design. I myself am no industry designer, just someone who loves game design, so articles here won't be anything professional or full of complicated lingo, but rather approachable dissections that anyone can learn from. Hopefully you will enjoy reading these as much as I enjoy writing them, and we can all deepen our understanding of games together.
