Definition:
The Game Dictionary was created to fill a hole left by other
industry resources. We hope to provide a single, encyclopaedic
home for terminology definitions covering the whole gamut of
the computer games industry.

In an industry this cutting-edge technology-oriented, it is
only natural that we will stumble over jargon with which we
are unfamiliar. This is particularly galling for newcomers to
the industry and those looking for accurate, accessible and
above all, intelligible, information. This is why we created
the Game Dictionary.

The Game Dictionary is very much a work-in-progress. Even when
we have a definition for every single word or term used
within the industry, we will continue to work on refining and
improving the definitions to make them as clear and as helpful
as possible. We also plan to provide links to longer articles
which help explain jargon in context. Eventually, we will
have a hybrid dictionary & encyclopaedia of games industry
terminology and techniques.

If you want to help us, we have provided a means for you to
suggest changes or additions to the dictionary database, and
we will also check each entry to ensure accuracy.
