- You respond to feedback openly and gracefully, in such a manner that open dialogue is encouraged.
- You’re able to contribute to any sub-craft of game design as needed and you understand how they collectively work together to deliver a great player and customer experience.
- Your designer's toolbox is a rich collection of different methods and problem solving techniques you deploy with ease starting with pre-production methods and research through production to final tuning.
