Session Name:

Unlocking the Power of Micro-Iteration

Overview:

Micro-Iteration is a process that allows for rapid improvement of specific content by pairing playtesters and developers. This technique has led to great success across many games, but was most striking on the World of Warcraft Encounter Design Team. However, this process requires substantial effort and organization - in structuring the team to make that time effective, in developing technology and tools to make the best use of rapid iteration time, and in developing relationships between developers and testers to ensure frank and honest feedback. This talk will both provide a case study in effective rapid iteration as well as a pathway for your technology and tools to unlock the power of rapid iteration for your game.
