Economies and Balance
in our final lecture on game mechanics, we address the issue of game balance. In particular, we show it is tightly connected to your game economy.
Game balance is relevant to all games, even games with only a single player mode. It is one of the things that we will be looking at when we evaluate your games this semester.
To complement this lecture, we recommend the following reading and/or viewing:- Fullerton, Chapters 10 and 11 (Optional)
