Agenda

1. Test and describe our core mechanic
2. Work collaboratively
3. Start writing pseudo-code to pass onto tech
4. Work out which games to buy in steam sale
5. Humanoid or non-humanoid characters? (how do things like jumps work?)
6. Target audience: the younger we go the more luck we include (family games)
