Creating Puzzles - Training.

[FlawlessHappiness]

Yea, yea, yea, I understand what you mean Rapture. Of course.

Though, I'm not asking "Hey guys. How do I make the best puzzles?".

I'm asking for your personal thoughts when you're going to create a puzzle in your map.
What do you think?
Are you checking some things off, when creating the puzzle. Is it something that just comes to you?

Basically: What are you doing, when you create puzzles? Any methods?


The one with "Create a small puzzle, then expand" is a great one. It works very well in a realistic game.
