NaGa DeMon

Crackpot genius Nathan Russell has come up with a bastard variant of the National Novel Writing Month.

He has called it the National Game Design Month...(or NaGa DeMon for short).

Participants basically spend a month writing a game, getting as much done as possible. Hopefully turning out a complete product by the end of the month.

I'm going to be refining Walkabout over the course of the month.

I've done a little so far...

A progress report shortly.

They're the easiest for most people to wrap their heads around.  But my preferred form of geomorph is based around the hexagon, these tend to produce more organic and interesting shapes. This is true for natural environments, but it's no less true for urban environments. The example set of geomorphs above as a simple two-phase system. One edge type is plain, the other edge type has a road piercing the centre. There could be dozens of combinations and permutations for each of the two phases around the hexagonal edges, but a quick look at the variety of buildings and road shapes shows that there could literally be hundreds of possible options when drawing these map fragments. But you certainly don't need to create hundreds of designs for the system to be effective. Usin
