In modern video game design, data reigns supreme.

In modern video game design, data reigns supreme. Building upon genre proven standards is the key to creating next hits.

You can use 70/20/10 Game Design strategy.
This is not THE strategy,
Rather, it is A strategy.

Let me explain, briefly:

70% of your design should be proven,
Something other games in the genre,
Done extremely well,
Considered ‘’standard’’ for the genre.

20% of it should be something better.
Depending on your team,
Make something better than top competitors
Something that team can improve.

10% is the element of surprise.
Try something new, mix other mechanics,
Go crazy, sky is the limit.

Minimum risk,
Maximum reward.
