UDK Developer's Group
Hardware & Tech
This is a group for all developers using the Unreal Developer's Kit. Open for all commercial, non-commercial and personal projects!
Description
Well, lets face it. Writing a design document is difficult, and very time consuming. On the projects that I've worked on, I've used this PDF made by the kind guys at CONJURE, (which I believe is the best one available, at least freely, to the community).

Great stuff squiggers, thanks for the template. (it's so difficult to find accessible information on game design documents)
I think this template may be larger than needed for smaller, meaning most indie projects. Although I prefer using my custom document (workin on first indie title, so what can I say?!) as it simply fits to the project (a template can't do that), this has all the little details requested for a design document you can find spread all over the web, and saves tons of time searching all these things.
To come to a point: Great work!! :)
Well, I had uploaded a shorter version (termed the Game Concept Document) that is a greatly reduced version of this.
For some reason its not been authorised however, as it might be better for smaller groups, or when you just need a brief explanation and don't have 2 weeks to sit down and type out that monster document. :P
I'll try and get the other document authorised, its a bit of a pain in the backside it not being authorised.
"THIS IS ADVISED ONLY TO BE USED FOR INDIE GAMES AND FULL CONVERSION MODIFICATIONS DUE TO THE SHEAR SIZE AND DETAIL OF THIS DOCUMENT."
s/SHEAR/SHEER/ -- wrong word there.
