Communicating your design ideas is fundamentally one of the most important roles of the game designer. Not only do you have to communicate the design of a game to a publisher and their marketing teams, but you have to communicate the design to the development team creating the game and communicate the rules to the player who is trying to play it. Sumsion will talk about the different needs of each group and finding effective ways to address those needs to successfully design, develop, market, sell and play video games.
