If you had an idea for a game that you eventually wanted to be procedural generated would you first play with the design on a static tileset?

If so is there anything to keep in mind while designing your assets / game objects?

    If you’re 100% confident that your planned gameplay is fun, and if the procedural generation is the only thing involved that you’re not yet 100% sure how to do, personally that’s the only time I’d build it in from the start.

    You need to get to the point of testing actual gameplay as fast as you can, and how the tileset was generated probably(?) doesn’t have a huge bearing on that at first so it’s worth doing the fast way.
