Blog on game books

These are scans of the game books that we were told to read. This read was heavily focused on where an artist gets their inspiration from, it talks about inspiration coming from anywhere and everywhere, how carrying a sketchbook wherever you go is a good idea, and also about people who are successful and where they get their inspiration from. This text also focuses on how to let your inspiration be put of by the 'been done before' idea but to instead try it and see where it goes but adopting your own path.

I found it overall interesting and found myself remembering from when i was younger some of the points made in the text. I have to agree with the text and think that even though i had an idea of what it is talking about before i read it i feel i have learned something from it, especially the part on call of duty and how the idea of having low health displayed by red around the screen and heavy breathing to signify near death to be a new mechanic in fps's and how this changed all fps's in the future as they almost all adopt this mechanic.
