Heard a bit of Don Normal "The Design of Everyday Things," in this. Nice job as usual. I like your videos.

Thanks! And for sure! Norman really helped bring behavioural psychology and design practices into the video game design field 🙂

Excellent video Tim!! I really liked it!

[@timdoesleveldesign]

Much appreciated! I'll be adding a bunch more introduction videos to several level design topics over the course of the next months :)
