Exploring Lightweight Prototyping Techniques in Game Design

This project presents an innovative exploration of lightweight prototyping in game design, focusing on various genres such as strategy, simulation, and first-person shooters. Key insights are drawn from notable examples like Battleship and The Sims, showcasing adaptability, experimentation, and the low cost of failure in the creative process. Demos highlight networked interactions, organism simulations, and problem-solving through division and connection concepts. This work aims to inspire new approaches to game development by emphasizing rapid iteration and collaborative learning.
