Allied Games Inc. company

Our Design Practice
Everyone gets a say in everything that comes into a project. If it’s a character concept or a spawning system, everyone’s ideas are brought together and pulled into one place. Collaborative design is the key to making a game that everyone can stand behind. Just because you are not an artist does not mean you don’t have ideas for characters. Likewise, artists are encouraged to put forward ideas about game mechanics. No matter what your discipline, your voice will be heard on any subject.

At Allied, we like to keep things relaxed. There is a general rule of thumb we use when we make our games. Make It Functional, Then Make It Pretty. If the core gameplay is not fun with placeholders, all the shiny particle effects and high-res textures in the world will not make the game fun. We find it works fairly well and you would be hard pressed not to find some stick drawings in the office or roughed out character / interface designs.
