Towards a Game Design Thesaurus | GDEX 2020 talk BRICK 101 2020-12-31 | Dictionary, glossary, lexicon, taxonomy — we have many ways of structuring important information about language, jargon, concepts, symbols. The thesaurus is my favorite. There are many game design vocabularies — every game has its own vocabulary, moveset, mechanics. Communicating about games across genres and platforms (digital, tabletop, sports, politics) is really hard. What does "turn" mean in Chess, Civilization 2, NASCAR, Hide & Seek? What subtly distinct bouquets of meaning do terms like verb, mechanic, and rule have? How do we create a game design thesaurus? BRICK 101 is owned and operated by Dave Pickett. Dave is fascinated by intersections of technology and creativity. As a child, he took apart his toys to build better ones. He still does as an adult. After a 15-year career producing and directing digital content (video, social, web), he went back to school. He is currently in the Game Design MFA program at DePaul University. He has designed award-winning levels in Mario Maker, co-authored the LEGO Animation Book, and is currently learning GB Studio.The BRICK 101 channel was formerly named Nightly News at Nine (NNN).

Frenemies Forever | Indie 2D Platformer made in Mario Maker BRICK 101 2020-06-07 | Play my game in Super Mario Maker 2 by searching for my Maker ID: 6K7-R82-70HI have a Twitch channel now: twitch.tv/brick101gamingThis is the game I made in game design grad school over the last couple of months. It's an indie 2D platformer about 2D platformers. Specifically, it's about the relationship between the player character and non-player characters. While many games have explored the player's relationships with friendly or hostile NPCs, very few have deeply explored relationships that walk the line between friend and enemy.I made this using the World Maker in Super Mario Maker 2.

Mario Kart Tour is a Waluigi Game [For ages 13+] BRICK 101 2020-03-01 | Waluigi is inevitable and unnecessary. He is the alpha and the omega. So too is Mario Kart Tour a logical extrapolation of certain aspects of the Mario Kart franchise and Nintendo's entire history as a company.This video is marked as for ages 13+ because I swear in it a little bit.The first part of this video is a brief history and philosophy of the character of Waluigi (and by extension, Mario, Luigi, and Wario) with brief detours into other weird aspects of Mario lore like Peachette. The second part is about how Mario Kart Tour embodies the same traits and processes as Waluigi.This is a recording of a talk I gave at the DePaul University Game Design Salon on February 28, 2020.
