DesignDocument, if you break the word down into 2 words, you get "Design Document"

you design a game or any project for that matter.... well all the design information goes into a document.

to write one, you get some paper and a pen, or open word/notepad/[text editor of choice] and write all the design information down.

the final product is a document
