A little advice for all the ITP students taking Frank Lantz’s into game design class: the easiest way to quickly design a game is to simply take an object, hold it in your hand, and then say the name of the object aloud. Finally — and this is key — add the letter “O” to the end of the name of the object (and possibly an exclamation mark!). Example: pick up a coin, say the name and then add an “O” to get: Coin-O! Viola… you have yourself a game. It’s that easy. Now just playtest it.
