An art director friend is looking for a good resource for interface
designs for games. My guess is it's a game for a website, but maybe
not. She has a tight deadline of 2 weeks to design a game interface.
Web resources or book recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks! -Kim

Hi Kim,
Two books that might be helpful are
- Game Design Workshop: Designing, Prototyping, & Playtesting Games
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1578202221/
- Chris Crawford on Game Design
http://www.amazon.com/Chris-Crawford-Game-Design/dp/0131460994/
On the web, one place to start is a collection of information on game
design patterns:
