Project consisting in imagining a game from A to Z and creating the documentation. I wanted to specialise in production management, so in addition to a high concept document, I wrote various production documents ranging from the EST to a market study and a budget simulation.

When :

December 2022

Duration :

2 weeks

This is the first document produced which brings together various production documents:

• I imagined the whole team and the jobs that would make up the studio made for the occasion. Because we are, in the imagination of the exercise, a new studio, I tried to base the project on experience with senior leaders having to oversee junior teams. I thought big enough in terms of headcount for a number of reasons such as the game the studio would be making which, through market research and ROI, should achieve a certain number of sales.

I chose to base "Giochi Di Gato" (my studio created for the occasion) in Rome because I like to change between the exercises and have to look for the possibilities/aids, in the country or the city, that would allow us to land in a healthy economic and social system.

• The second document is the EST, which I have detailed with one of the levels which was made by a classmate and other global parts of the game.

All elements can be filtered for easier access to information and the left and right panels provide numbers for even greater readability.

• I carried out a market study to know where to place itself in the videogame landscape and to be able to have an idea of the future of the game. I also carried out a market analysis by taking the reference games to determine the price of the game and I calculated the ROI of the game to see if a future at the studio would be possible.

• I also did a Coda to make a macro planning and a Wiki of the game.

For this first one, I decided to refer to the development of a level to multiply it by the number we imagined to try to make sense of the design time. So it will take the company no less than three years to complete the project. I cut up the schedule in two ways, first with the progress phases and then within these phases I re-cut it into sprints.

I have tried to take as many things into account as possible as in the example below with the public holidays in Italy.

• Finally, I used ClickUp to show how I would have built my management tools during a sprint.
