Revision as of 15:53, 7 December 2009

Note: not all these patterns should necessary be made...

Note: to make a new pattern, use the Gameplay Design Pattern Template

Note: the suggested patterns are not made as links to avoid hiding patterns that are actually referenced to

Note: the totally new patterns at the bottom of the page should be left even after they are create to make it easier for us to identify them.

Suggestion from non-users for new patterns will hopefully be possible to do on the discussion page soon.
