How to manage Document Versions in a game design document

Function

To display the changes made in the latest and previous versions of the GDD.

Problem

Let’s say there are five versions of the GDD, from version 1 to 5. Each version contains different updates and varying amounts of information. Now, imagine there’s a new update, and both new and existing team members need to read everything from the beginning just to understand what has changed. That would be time consuming, right ?

Solution

This version update page is designed to save time and streamline the development process by allowing team members to quickly see which pages have changed without needing to read the entire document from the start.
