What Is Game Prototyping?
Game prototyping is the process of creating a simplified, playable version of a game idea to test and validate its core mechanics, design, and overall fun factor. It allows developers to experiment quickly, identify potential problems early, and refine concepts before investing significant time, money, and resources into full production.
The main goal of prototyping is to bring the idea to life as quickly as possible, gather feedback, and make improvements before committing to large-scale development.
