The most important thing when it comes to finishing a game is to finish it.
Seems silly, doesn’t it? Well, most teams fail because the production department couldn’t focus the resources correctly.
Planning development, Managing resources, Motivating and Coordinating the team, and Knowing how to separate the essential from the non-essential will make the difference between a product that fails and one that succeeds.
Once you’re clear on what’s important, it’s time to design your production plan:
Remember to decide and implement the methodology that best suits your team and their skills.
Designate the objectives of each development stage: Pre-production, Production, and Post-production or Live Ops.
Set the production schedule with delivery dates for your team.
Maybe you don’t know how to do all this, or simply don’t have the time to manage the day-to-day of a development team, but you are still determined to push a project or studio forward.
In that case, the best thing you can do is rely on a professional. At MSGD, we have years of experience leading teams of 3 to 20 people and would be delighted to hear your project proposal.
