Daniel Lyons' Notes

Practical Creativity - GDC

A talk about creativity.

  • 01:47: Innovation doesn't necessarily mean success. In fact, often it means the opposite.
  • 02:02: What is creativity?
  • 13:29: isomorphic definition in game design
  • 16:19: In practice creativity is taking something that already exists and putting it into a new context
  • 28:58: Case Study: The Pangrammatic Fox (Forced Constraints)
    • This poem has every single letter, in every single line. This is a constraint.
    • Constraints force us to make creative decisions.
  • 31:28: Adding a verb or goal
