Author Topic: "Mum, Dad, I want to be a Game Designer" - Video  (Read 721 times)

I stumbled across this video on youtube while looking at some animations, and out of curiosity, I gave it a click.
Blockland in general is about creating new things, or improving on old ones. The game gives users a community that is engrossed with the developing skills of game design. After watching this video (it was made by EA, so the video is a little buggy) I figured that many of you might be interested in this, or just to watch something that may give you some inspiration or insight on to new fields of creativity.

My problem was, the video is about creativity in game design, so where the heck do I post it? Creativity for things YOU created, wouldn't really fit in Games, since they're for playing. And off-topic is just a jumble. But eh this should work.

You'll get most out of the video from the first 20 minutes, after that it's a bit dull, but post a reply about what you thought of it, what ideas you got, if it did or didn't inspire you, what you feel was left out of the video, etc.


Regardless, it outlines some very important principles that I think alot of people can miss =P

It's a jewing attempt whether you know it or not.

Electronic Arts is a horrific company that makes absolute horrendous crap and sells it without testing most of the integral parts.



Try to make interesting thread.
Get pile of stuff about saying it's not going to work.

Ohh internet. I missed you.
