Abstract

The aim of this guide is to provide practical resources for video game creators who wish to document their work, within the perspective archiving it. It includes short explanations and tables for applying documentation actions, in order to help preserve the works created. This guide was designed as part of the CoronaQuest (2020, DNA Studios) Swiss video game archiving project supported by Memoriav and run by the Swiss Video Game Archivists association (SVGA). It is based on Myriam Jouhar's master's thesis. Cf. Myriam Jouhar, Archivage des jeux vidéo suisses : suivi et enjeux lors de la création d’un jeu vidéo (Lausanne 1830 : Histoires de registres, 2022), Genève : Haute école de gestion de Genève, 2022, 145 p.
