The first steps into the world of making games. All those important documents that you have to write is all well explained here. I highly recommend for everyone.

Excellent thank you

Great Course! I learned a lot. Though not very 'hands on' as the first course was.. but still a great course.

This course made me sweat a bit. Nonetheless, was fun and definitely gave me understanding on design sphere in gamedev.

This course is really very helpfull u guys should go for it!!

Excellent course and trainer , very attractive but some some resources is outdated

Excellent

Very Interesting overview of game design principles for beginner..........

Great Class, I have learned a lot stuff

I really enjoy this course

Loaded with great information! Thanks!

This is a great course for the people like me, that have programming background and want to learn game design. The transmission from programming to design could be very challenge, but this course provides lots of help. Please enjoy the *hard* fun.

I really like your course, It is easy but yet make me understand and have a clear point to start!

Great course sir

I think the course is well-structured, and it contains a lot of useful materials, I really liked it.

At the same time, I think, while it's easy to go through the course quickly and answer the questions, if the one is really interested in the topic, they need much more time than the description mentioned to read all the articles, to learn from them by applying them at work/in practice.

This course is amazing, it confronts you with questions regarding game design and forces you to find creative answers, all of this while getting your hands dirty! You'll think of the game as a pitch, then its story, then the whole thing as precisely and accurately as possible and, finally, you'll be tasked to prototype a part of it! It's an invaluable experience, and Casey O'Donnell does a really good job with the videos. There's only one question left: why aren't you taking this course yet???

Very usefull and with great material to read

Great course for fleshing out ideas. The only problem was the third assignment: making a prototype should take about a month, and we only had a few days to make one.

It was great opportunity of learning game development and designing process. I would like to recommend it highly to everyone who is interested in game development. It will boost your skills and concepts up to expert level.

Pros: Good lectures. The professor (Casey) provided a lot of interesting readings to supplement the discussions. Some of them were a bit on the scholarly side, but overall surprisingly interesting and informative. I also watched the documentary about indie game designers (Indie Game: The Movie) during this course and found it very helpful. Cons: I wish the quiz questions had explanations of why something was right or wrong.

Excelent course. I've had chance to see how process of design game looks like. I'm new in games area so I've got a lot of usefull information. I also think that many techinick can be succesfully used in other life activities - especcialy brainstormin, idea creation ect.

it would have been cool if they could have tied in some of the projects from the last course and talked about ways to better organize their design, but all in all this was a pretty good intro to game design. There were a lot of links to outside resources which was cool too.

As a writer, it's a fun experience to design hands-on documentations! a great course for those looking for game design lessons.

Amazing, I recommend to everyone.

Very good course. A unique experience for who's interested in these topics.

Great course. A very good balance between practice and theory. This a very well documented course.
