Hey, @[email protected], how is the book coming along? Also, and would you care to post part of your reading list?
Yeah for sure. I'm about a third of the way through "The Art of Game Design: A Book Of Lenses" and it has proven to be a very useful book full of actionable tools to help get the creative juices flowing. The titular "Lenses" each consist of a few questions to ask yourself as you make decisions about your game. Some neat examples:
The author has worked on a number of experiences for Disney that he relays as well, creating bespoke hardware and incredibly immersive short experiences. His emphasis on cross-domain knowledge and attention to detail in all aspects really appeals to me.
I've had to take a little break, got some life stuff going on, but I'm hoping to finish this book by the end of the month.
