First let me explain.
I have been creating games for 14 years now. However I have only managed to complete 2 of them in that time. the reason for this is I get Ideas half way through the game that takes it off in a different direction and it just gets bigger and bigger till there is no hope of me completing it. So this time I am setting out to first create a mind map of my idea and then once I have done that I will work on creating the game itself and stick rigidly to the mind map.
I am looking to get your help with headings that will be needed for the designing of the mind map.
I have 6 thus far:
Locations
Characters
Monsters
Creatures
Story
Game Mechanics
The more I detail I can put in the design the less likely that there will be a need for my Achilles Heel, the dreaded redesign.
I have included my mind map as of this post and I welcome any ideas for Heading or for more detailed ideas.
Thanks in advance
