    I have needed this game design video for 14 years. This is the best game design tutorial i have seen on all of game devs soft skills-- on meaning making and choice making and decision space and design itself.<br><br>I feel extremely empowered to push forward in my designs. Ane I just wanted to put out into the digital ether that I had that feeling 14 years after the videos release.

    having now played through The Witness, it feels super weird when he is showing a video of early puzzle prototypes and the line crosses through itself..

    An hour well spent. It&apos;s a shame some of Jonathan&apos;s examples were cut out from the video, though. I don&apos;t know if they were removed in the interest of time, or because they were seen as unimportant to the talk, but it would&apos;ve been nice to see those extra few minutes. Any extra insights from Jon Blow are worth keeping, as far as I&apos;m concerned.

    @MsBickle76 It depends on the event- Some events have a strict no filming policy and sometimes the venue has very specific rules. At IndieCade, you&apos;re free to film as long as the Presenter/Speaker is comfortable with it. This video was captured by Ida Bendetto, an incredibly helpful and amazing IndieCade volunteer.
