 Manage your Game Development Projects Better

As projects grow, maintaining focus becomes extremely difficult.  And with a solid production plan, knowing what needs to be done will answer a great deal more planning questions.  Video Game Design Pro provides the resources that producers and managers require in order to make more accurate budgeting, scheduling, and staffing requirements, as well as the necessary tools to be able to adjust these estimates in light of an ever-changing development environment.  Did you know that nearly two-thirds of game development projects significantly over run their schedules?  To find out why this is so, and how VGDP can help, please download our Free White Paper.

The Video Game Design Pro software is intuitive, easy-to-use, and it comes with a comprehensive help guide.  It is also backed by 24/7 technical assistance and regular maintenance updates, so you won't be left alone during the design process.  For advanced users, the program screen can be customized to your specific needs.  We also offer additional customization Solutions for studios who wish to tailor the VGDP program to their organization's standards and needs.

Why pour hundreds of dollars into incompatible software applications when Video Game Design Pro is industry-specific and can accomplish all of your design and production needs without having to sacrifice your previous approaches? 

Did you know that it's 50-200 times less expensive to fix errors during requirements analysis and pre-production?  Or that shortchanging these types of activities almost always causes cascading problems later on?  The VGDP solution mitigates developmental risks, and enhances the benefits of pre-production activities.

Do your designers and programmers "sit at different lunch tables?"  Communication is the most often cited aspect of game development that needs to be improved.  Poor collaboration, communication break-downs, uncontrolled feature creep, do any of these development problems sound familiar?  If you've worked on as many projects as we have, they should.  And Video Game Design Pro, unlike any other product on the market today, offers tools that address these issues head-on.  Visit our Features section to learn more.

If you're anything like us, you take game design seriously, and don't feel comfortable tossing your next award-winning game concept into a notebook or standard word processor.  With features like annotated content management, design notes, a screenplay dialogue toolbar, wizard tasks, and even diagramming tools, you can give your gameplay the depth, story, fun, excitement, and innovation that all designers so desperately seek.  Just think about it, if you were an artist would you rather create your renders in MS Paint, or 3DS Max?  Game Design should be treated no differently.  So use Video Game Design Pro to enhance and manage the greatest asset of the game development process, design.

Let's face it, the primary reason for the existence of Design Documentation is to allow team members to quickly and easily look up information about a section of the game they are working on.  They're not read like novels, no one starts at the beginning and comes out at the end.  Primarily, design documents are reference materials, and if team members cannot easily retrieve the data they are seeking, they are liable to give up.  This is why Video Game Design Pro has a number of data retrieval methods, including an automatically generated Table of Contents, highlight and click index, more than 20 Goto options, and a search function among other things.
