Game Design

Intro

I’m the game designer of NontendoSL, it`s my first time designing a game. I’m very proud of my job and our game, and I hope you like it all and enjoy it. Now i will explain my job in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to Pokémon World, at first One day at my house I thought, oh what would happen if I link out to the world of pokémon. and i explain all my team, to the whole team seemed a good idea and, i set to work, first i think about to connect the worlds and one little story on my head, in this story Zelda is kidnapped for Ganon, and Ganon can travel around of the nintendo world. At first Link can go around the Nintendo world's first Pokémon and at least Super Mario, but the team decided quit Super Mario world and centred on Pokémon.

Documents

One of the task of game designer it’s document everything so that as many programmers as artists can go at any time. These documents have to be concise brief and clear, because if you don’t explain well in them could be confusions and generate errors and have to go changing the design or explain the same thing every time.

Like that of the photo with all the documents of the game, all these documents end up converging in one… The Game Design Document(GDD).

Level Design and Final Maps

Another of the many tasks of a game designer is the level design, this starts with a small sketch or a quick drawing on the level that you want to design yourself. In this part I thank you very much to my leader Jordi, for helping me with the drawings since I am not very good at drawing, the pictures you see are simple but clear to help the artist. In this project i collaborated with my teammate Sergio Alvarez on did the maps of the game, This is one of the concept maps and how it is at the end.

Balancing and Testing

Finally it is to say one of the most important parts of a designer that the balancing and testing game, helping to QA reporting bugs and to code and everything that can be. The process of balancing Games are very complexed,Thanks my co-workers for doing a great job in which to change data or to be able to test things to balance you can test them, at first i can a Excel to the formules of all pokemons and items or money and have a to do a lot of hours testing and balancing all. this is a example
