Hi! I'm Nicolas Kraj, a 15+ years veteran Game Designer who created GDKeys back in 2020. GDKeys is a community-driven site dedicated to Game Design that hopes to become one of the most impactful free resources on the topic online.On GDKeys, you will find a goldmine of knowledge and theory written by expert designers worldwide, but also design tools to download and use without limitation:<h2 style="text-align:center;">&gt;&gt;&nbsp;<a href="http://gdkeys.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> GDKeys.com</a> &lt;&lt;</h2>But GDKeys is also a community of expert developers with its dedicated Discord. Over there, we support each other's games&nbsp;(<a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/1075170/Weaving_Tides/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Weaving Tides</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/692890/Roboquest/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Roboquest</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/917820/Fairtravel_Battle/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">FairTravel Battle</a>, or&nbsp;<a href="https://magenoir.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Mage Noir</a> to name a few), organize playtests, discuss industry news, debate game design, share job offers, and pretty much be each other sidekicks. Come with your questions, experience, game, or prototype; you will fit right in!&gt;&gt; Supporting this Patreon grants you instant access to this Discord server &lt;&lt;<h2 style="">About me</h2>I have spent 15+ years in the design industry, I shipped more than 13 games on 7 platforms. I have been Design Director for Ghost Recon, Seniro Line Designer on Space Marine 2, Lead Game Designer on Assassin’s Creed Origin and Immortals Fenyx Rising, Senior Game Designer on Beyond Good and Evil 2 and The Crew,&nbsp;and UX Designer for Marvel, Just Dance, Raving Rabbits, and Might &amp; Magic to name the most significant ones (and the ones I am allowed to mention).
