Since i’m on holidays i got plenty of time to make research and learn a little. While i was on the beach, i was searching for some new articles, analysis and videos about incremental and idle games. Everything because currently i’m working on my biggest project (still do not have ready title) which will classify to that popular these days genre.
Firstly i will show some great video which will define what games classify to that genre.
So if we have our definition i can share link to the greatest ( in my opinion) discussion about incremental and idle games between many game developers. They share they knowledge and experience for that specific genre .
Discussion about incremental and idle games
And sum up of what i think is the most important thing to think about while designing idle game:
- Quick progression
- Unfolding content
- Easy and minimalistic start
- Ability to start game from scratch with new unfolded content and/or quicker progression
That’s all for now. I just wanted to share results of my research under this popular genre.
