Activity 1. When developing a game what would you research before investing, e.g techniques and methods :

Primarily I would look into the production process. Befores investing in a game I would research what the market wants and select a main target audience to build a base for my game, next I would find what hardware and software is required to make the game. next I would search the job market for skilled developers and technicians. producing prototypes and providing interviews and demos would also be crucial to create qualitative and quantitative research.
