GAME DESIGN COURSE - WEEK #1
Each week we will walk you through different aspects of creating your own course. We start by learning a little more about you, your customers, and then into the creation of your very own board, card, tabletop, and video game.
This week we will start with the basics before we get into the design. There is a lot of information that you will be experiencing with the Introduction, Chapter 1: Milton Bradley's Checkered Game of Life and Finding your Why? for designing your own game. Stick with us, the basics are essential if you want to follow through.

Game Design Journal
This is a journal where you will keep all your thoughts. That way, if you have to go back a few steps because you decide on a redesign, you can remember exactly what you were thinking at the time and why you created it like you did. This journal is a printable document so if you need to start over you can. Keep this journal as long as you desire to design games because I know you will put some knowledge bombs in there that "future you" will want to reflect on.
