Roadmapping
Roadmapping
Roadmapping is a lengthy and thorough process involving the department leads to help define feature requirements and the development time. It starts with identifying the MVP, followed by adding subsequent must-haves and wish list items to estimate development costs and meet client/investor needs.
It requires a lot of forward thinking in terms of player retention and the game's overall potential lifespan. It should include planning for IAPs and DLCs while making sure these are well balanced gameplay experiences.

This is where I have the most fun. I forget about the game's current limitations and reimagine it. What if the tabs are small screens and showed images instead of just letters. Then this simple game of categories can be reversed and expanded... not to mention what could be done with colors and sounds!

I tend to think of the entire experience a user will have from first ad or commercial to what they'll be remembering and sharing after their experience. I strongly believe that having a backstory to any project is imperative to it's success. Even if it's not part of the final version, the audience will always detect if project has a heart or not.
