Neal takes you through every step of the process including writing your design document (the game designer's bible, as it were). The process itself is, in fact, one of the strongest aspects of this title. Even though the process should be taken seriously, you should work very hard at both doing it well, and having fun while you do it.
Neal Hallford never forgets that, even though this is a billion-dollars-a-year industry, we make GAMES. Each chapter is complete with a handful of exercises to help the budding game designer expand the way in which they think about gamesThis title is also rife with interesting tidbits and trivia about past games and game development. He really helps you to craft a world in your own mind (and helps you think `outside of the box' as you design). You can tell how much he enjoys his work, and his excitement for the focus medium (RPGs) is infectious as you read. It is from that point of view that really makes this title stand out. I've seen other game design books that failed to educate or even entertain.Neal Hallford writes this book not only from the point of view of a veteran game designer (Betrayal at Krondor, Dungeon Siege, and others), but also from the point of view of a GAMER. The chapters and subsections were written in a very clear and concise manner. More importantly, this book is down to earth and easily digestible. From story design to gameplay mechanics to writing your pitch documents, this book will show you the most important stages of game development. Neal Hallford lays it all right out in front. If you have any interest in designing RPG games (or any game at all, for that matter) this is the best book for your bank.

It also opens the possibility of community collaboration, as many engine remake projects tend to be open source. The result of a proper engine clone is often the ability to play a game on modern systems that the old game could no longer run on. The new engine reads the old engine's files and, in theory, loads and understands its assets in a way that is indistinguishable from the original.

Game engine recreation is a type of video game engine remastering process wherein a new game engine is written from scratch as a clone of the original with the full ability to read the original game's data files.
