    设计历程(Design History)

     

          这里放一个用来解释这个文档设计历程的摘要。

    (This is a brief explanation of the history of this document.)

     

          这个段落,你要向读者阐释写这个设计历程的目的。他们有可能会不明白你要向他们说明什么。

    (In this paragraph describe to the reader what you are trying to achieve with the design history.  It is possible that they don’t know what this is for and you need to explain it to them.)

     

    版本 1.10(Version 1.10)

     

          1.10版本包括了最初设计后所做的一些调整。下面是我做的修整。

    (Version 1.10 includes some tuning and tweaking that I did after making my initial pass at the design.  Here is what I changed.)

         

    1、我改写了游戏的系统要求。

          (1.  I rewrote the section about what systems the game runs on.)

    2、我合并了团队成员的那些没有过多改变的设计片段。

    (2.  I incorporated feedback from the team into all parts of the design however no major changes were made.)

    3、象这样继续你的修改列表。

    (3.  Just keep listing your changes like this.)

     

    版本 2.00(Version 2.00)

     

          2.00版本是第一个完成了大量修改的版本,在非常了解游戏的前提条件下。在很长时间的设计之后,确定了很多结果。在这个文档中会有更多的大型设计结果。

    Version 2.00 is the first version of the design where a major revision has been made now that much more is known about the game.  After many hours of design, many decisions have been made.  Most of these large design decisions are now reflected in this document.

     

          列出所包含的改变:

          Included in the changes are:

     

          1、成双地作出设计余地。

    (1.  Pairing down of the design scope. Scope, not design)

    2、在很多区域有更多详细的描述,特定的ABC

    (2.  More detailed descriptions in many areas, specifically A, B and C.)

    3、故事细节。

    (3.     Story details.)

    4、世界规划和设计。

          1、次要的修改遍及整个文档。

    2、加入“用户界面附录”。

    2.  Added “User Interface Appendix”.

    3、加入“游戏道具附录”。

    游戏概述(Game Overview

     

    哲学(Philosophy

     

    哲学观点 #1(Philosophical point #1)

     

          这个游戏试着去做这些或那些。根本上我试着去完成一些以前所没有实现过的东西。或者,这个游戏不去试着改变世界。我们将撕破那些我不相信的严密竞赛。世界将被我们仅仅使用现有引擎和新的美工所制造的成果震撼。

          (This game is trying to do this and that.  Fundamentally I am trying to achieve something that has never been achieved before.  Or.  This game will not try and change the world.  We are ripping off the competition so exactly that I can’t believe it.  The world will be shocked at how we are using an existing engine with new art.)

     

    哲学观点 #2(Philosophical point #2)

     

          我们的游戏仅在康柏电脑上运行。为了某某理由。(???不明白。)

          Our game only runs on Compaq computers.  The reason for this is such and such.  We believe the world is coming to and end anyhow so what difference does it make?

     

    哲学观点 #3(Philosophical point #3)

     

          当你创造了一些拱型哲学观点,说些你想的事情。

          When you create some of these overarching philosophical points about your design, say whatever you want.  Also, feel free to change it to “My game design goals” or whatever you like to call it.

     

    基本问题(Common Questions

     

    这个游戏是什么?(What is the game?

     

          用一个段落来介绍这个游戏。回答那些你们将被询问的大多数基本问题。例如你们在什么机种上工作?

    Describe the game is a paragraph.  This is the answer to the most common question that you will be asked.  What are you working on?

     

    为什么做这个游戏?(Why create this game?

     

          你们为什么要做这样一个游戏?

          Why are you creating this game?  Do you love 3D shooters?  Do you think there is a hole in the market for Jell-O tossing midgets?

     

    这个游戏在哪里发生?(Where does the game take place?

     

     

     

          描述你的游戏所发生的世界。简单一些。帮助读者的头脑去判断。你不能够使用冗长的文字来独立描述这个世界。记住使你的文字清晰及易读。(???不明白)

          Describe the world that your game takes place in.  Simple as that.  Help frame it in the reader’s mind by spending a few sentences on it here.  You can go into lengthy detail later in a section solely dedicated to describing the world.  Remember that we want to keep this part of the design light and readable.

     

    我要操作什么?(What do I control?

     

          说明一下角色要如何控制。你将在一群狂暴的、变异的、无聊的玩家掌管下。如果你想打开人工智能并转向仿真鱼碗。(???不明白)

          Describe what the player will control.  You will be in charge of a band of rabid mutant fiddle players.  If you want you can switch on the AI and turn it into a fish bowl simulation.

     

    我有几个角色可以选择?(How many characters do I control?

     

          如果选择角色是有效的,说明一下吧。记住回答那些读者要问的问题。这全部依赖你的设计。

          If this applies talk a little more about the control choices.  Remember to add answers to questions that you think the reader will ask.  This is totally dependent on your design.

     

    要点是什么?(What is the main focus?

     

          我们已经知道了游戏的发生场景和如何控制角色。他们假想去完成什么?生气的、无聊的玩家会接管联合国。小心不要加入推销术。你的设计必须明确。

          Now that we know where the game takes place and what the player controls.  What are they supposed to achieve in this world?  Angry fiddle players take over the U.N. building.  Be careful not to add a bunch of salesmanship here.  Your design wants to stay light and informative.

     

    与同类游戏有什么不同?(What’s different?

     

          告诉他们这个游戏与同类游戏有什么不同。这些问题会非常多。(???不明白)

    Tell them what is different from the games that are attempting this in the market right now.  This question comes up a lot.
