My Contributions

Published by Atari, Faeries vs. Darklings was a mix of match-3 and action game launched for Facebook in 2010, in the peak of the social gaming wave. Back in those years, the video games industry was at peak interest about Social games. I designed most of its concepts and systems to find a publisher and funding to develop a first version for this game.

Back in 2009 to 2011, the video games industry was at peak interest about Social games. This is when Zynga was skyrocketing to the top and Facebook games like Farmville were all the rage within games business. I wrote this GDD to find a publisher and funding to launch this title.
