xyz Complaining about it won't make it any easier though.
Just like the Ukrainian march:
"For crying has not yet given anyone freedom"
That's pretty much it… or so it seems… the point is that the project is very much experimental. Therefore, the existing frameworks are very poorly suited to it. However, the fact that it's possible to create a strong game even without a design document at all is known.
But in general, I follow this plan and have all the points except the second
- a working rough prototype and/or convincing animated mockups that demonstrate key gameplay concepts
and that point is a frontier in my concept. I'm working on it now.
There is a third way. You could say it's a compilation of the first two options.
In any case, progress on the project will be posted on this site.
In my opinion we've gone way off topic, but since the moderator is flooding along with us, we're good for now. 😹
Single work, unfortunately, very much limits the scope of possible work.
