In the long term it will be very useful to have a list of terms and their explanations, to make sure we're all on the same page.
This will br especially useful for new contributors.

The main part should probably be game-specific terms (e.g. what "signals" mean in our game), but it should probably also include other terms that we use throughout the design book and that might not be known by everyone (e.g. "Zachlike").

Agreed! I'd like to split this into:

  • genre terms
  • Emergence terms
  • game design terms
  • ecology terms

Cross-links will be very valuable.

I think as a first step, to get the ball rolling on this, we should add Glossary, and then put in a bunch of terms that we want defined (the actual defining can happen in separate PRs).

Alright, so we have the stubs in! Yay!

I guess we should keep this issue open to track Glossary related stuff? Or should we close it up and create a separate tracking issue?

Close this issue once all items in the Glossary have definitions!
