FAQs

When you want to hire a game designer, look for skills like creativity, storytelling, and an understanding of game mechanics. They should know how to make games fun and interesting. Experience with design software, like Unity or Unreal Engine, is important too.
A clear project brief helps the game designer understand what you want. Include details about the game concept and target audience. This way, you start on the same page, and the designer can bring your vision to life effectively.
A game designer's portfolio should showcase different styles and genres. Look for completed projects and any game design documents. Check their past work to see if their style matches your project goals.
To set the right deliverables, think about the stages of your game project. Common deliverables include concept art, prototypes, and final game assets. Agree with the designer on what they’ll deliver and when, to keep the project on track.
If your game is for players in England, a designer who knows the local gaming market is helpful. They’ll know what's popular with UK players and understand cultural trends. This knowledge can help make your game more appealing to an English audience.
Good communication is vital in game design projects. Notice how they explain their design ideas or respond to your project brief. Clear and timely communication ensures everyone is aligned, avoiding misunderstandings.
If your designer is not in England, set clear communication guidelines. Decide on tools and times for regular updates. Good communication will help bridge any distance and ensure smooth collaboration across borders.
Ask about their experience with past project timelines. Look for feedback from previous clients about punctuality. Having a designer who meets deadlines keeps your project on track.
Set a timeline with milestones and check-ins. Milestones help track progress and keep the designer accountable. Regular updates ensure there are no surprises, keeping the project within schedule.
Provide feedback that's clear and specific. Mention what works well and any changes you’d like. Constructive feedback helps the designer refine their work to match your vision.
