Game Design Document

A Game Design Document (GDD) is a comprehensive blueprint that outlines all aspects of a video game’s development. It details the game's concept, story, characters, gameplay mechanics, art style, sound, levels, and technical requirements. The GDD serves as a guiding reference for the development team, ensuring everyone understands the vision and stays aligned throughout the project. It helps organize ideas, set goals, and manage resources efficiently, acting like a detailed map that directs how the game will be built from initial concept to finished product.
