Here I talk about geometry in game design in The Real Texas, my upcoming game.
@p
Real, wild forests have a natural layout that is chaotic and actually uninviting to humans; they are confusing and dangerous. When you're designing a game, don't imitate this but instead think about laying things out geometrically, to afford the player a better understanding of where they are, and make them feel at home.
