Data Visibility is a huge part of the enjoyment of games. I hope that all the developers who publish with Slitherine have a look at D3, which is becoming widely popular in displaying information.

I think a large part of games is representing the information and allowing the player to decide what choices to make. D3 is Free Software and becoming widely used for displaying data - Data Vizualization. I hope that you might enjoy looking at some of the stuff below:

Whilst pondering how these displays might be of use in a game, have a look at a few of the notebooks, some of which permit interaction. For example:

brush.filter
delaunay.find
d3.interpolate.discrete
brushable scatterplot matrix
d3.path
