Principles of Worldbuilding

The X Principles of the Way We Build Worlds

Introduction

This work is specific to our worldbuilding process and directly applicable to art, writing and the software architecture of the website and game engine.

The Principles

1. The World is Fractal

It is following a constant structure following the same principles everywhere in the hierarchy.

This means that however large and detailed the world is, its complexity will not grow.

2. The World is Dual

The world is made of polar and complimentary opposites. Their interplay gives tension and friction creating the movement powering stories and interactions.
