And from there we make a detailed script, then a level design and start prototyping. The influence of his work on our culture is enormous.

If you are planning to make the code cleaner at some point, it has to be because it gets difficult to work with it. At this point, many readers might have noticed that Godot was created to develop games this way. Wait, shouldn't a prototype come first? After a good idea, the most natural action is to prototype it.

I really don't want to only be known as "the guy that created Monkey Island and made point-and-click games" and that's all anyone wants to hear me talk about.

Here are some screen’s from the game’s prototyping phase. Note that the point of the Energy system in Frontierville was to ration out progress (so you don’t burn out on the game) which creates friction and, thus, a potential microtransaction. This was an odd little moment in time, by the way.

I've been fascinated by board games that revolve around drafting for years now, and in early 2011 I wrote a post on the pillars that make these games click. I've created an online prototype for playtesting that has seen almost 2000 games completed with at least a dozen players clocking in at over 100 games apiece.
