A Course About Game Balance
In this 2016 GDC session, game designer and educator Ian Schreiber presents a summary of his college-level course in game balance, examining the major topics covered in the syllabus and a set of assignments that can be used to further build balance skills by putting the theory into practice. GDC talks cover a range of developmental topics including game design, programming, audio, visual arts, business management, production, online games, and much more.
