Hey’all!

I am glad to share our latest chapter drop, Game Design Principles! This isn't just another theory dump. It's your practical guide to understanding what makes games tick and how to craft experiences that players won't forget.

The Good Stuff Inside

Let's break down the game-changing concepts you'll master:

• Flow State: The secret sauce to keeping players hooked (without frustrating them!)
• Squeeze & Release: My favorite technique for crafting memorable moments by creating tension and pleasure
• Risk vs. Reward: Putting players into weighing out the consequences of their choices
• Core Loop Design: Build the sequence of repeatable actions your players will do to complete your game
• Plus tons of other concepts like Rubber Banding, Carrot Dangling, Breadcrumbing, Funneling, and Juiciness

Learn by Doing

I've packed this chapter with:

• Actual gameplay clips that show these concepts in action
• Crystal-clear visuals that make complex ideas click
• Real examples from games we love (Dark Souls, Ori, Mega Man X - you know, the good stuff!)
