What is a game design document and what goes in it?

A game design document is the written reference the team builds from. It usually covers the core loop, mechanics and rules, controls, progression, content scope, economy, art and audio direction, and technical assumptions. Its purpose is to remove ambiguity, so a good document makes decisions rather than describing possibilities.

What should I prepare before commissioning concept design?

Write down your genre, target platform and audience, any mechanics you consider non-negotiable, references to games you want to sit near, and your realistic constraints on team size, timeline and budget. If you already have prototypes, art or a pitch deck, share them. Constraints shape a concept as much as ambitions do.

How is game concept design priced on Zinn Hub?

Each Zinner sets and displays their own price in USD on the listing. Scope is the main driver: a one-page pitch concept is a very different commission from a full design document with economy modelling. Buyers pay no platform fee. Agree the deliverable list and document length in messages before ordering.

Who owns the design work I commission?

Ownership and usage terms are set by each individual Zinner, so agree them explicitly on the order before work begins. Most buyers want full rights to the documentation and any concepts within it, plus clarity on whether the designer may reference the project in a portfolio. Put the agreement in writing on the order rather than relying on assumption.

Do I need concept design if I am a solo developer?

Even solo, a written concept is useful because it forces the core loop to be defined before months of building. It also gives you something to hand to contractors, artists or a publisher without re-explaining the game each time. The document can be short; what matters is that the mechanics and scope are decided rather than assumed.

How do I choose a game concept designer?

Look for experience in your genre and at your scale, because systems design for a live service title and for a premium single-player game demand different instincts. Ask for a redacted sample document to judge clarity and structure. Verified-purchase reviews are worth reading for comments on whether the designer engaged with the buyer constraints.
