            Reading week 4

Hello
Welcome to my blog

This week I continued my research and looked at few looked at other sources that i was able to find online. the two topics that I am looking at for the book is gameplay analysis and Game Design Tools. So went to look for sources about these online.

I first looked at Gameplay analysis research and i was able to find "Game analysis: Developing a methodological toolkit for the qualitative study of games" by Mia Consalvo, Nathan Dutton this scholar article  talked about methodological toolkit for game design so this article talks about sort of way to approach game design it talks about a few games and how this approach to game design applies to these games and how they were designed. It also goes into detail about how to approach object inventory and other main parts of a game.

The second topic I looked was "Game design tools: Time to evaluate" by Katharine Neil this evaluates game desgin tools and what games will be like without them and games designers use the tools to make the games. So this goes deep into how game design tools work and how important there to game design.
