Basically, the idea is to design a game that someone can make in a week.
EDIT: After some thought, I'll just put all Game Design musings and documents here.
I've finally finished my GDD. It's not perfect and it's my first time even doing one. I'm sure there are some major holes. But I got what I wanted from it. A taste of doing a GDD for a game that would qualify for the WoA 2017 contest and could be made in a week.

And I'm using Dundoc to create my design document. Here: https://…
