The Random Exercise

Today we preformed an exercise in which we wrote down as many things as we possibly could in certain categories, a Person,  a Place, a Time, an Object and an Animal. Then our tutor asked each student for numbers and then applied those numbers to the relative thing thing in each list.

Through this exercise he demonstrated that most of the games we love and enjoy today are completely insane in their imagining.

For instance take Mario, an Italian plumber who fights a giant turtle dragon who has kidnapped his girl friend who's a princess, think of how nuts that is.

We must now attempt to come up with some concepts for a 2D game using this handy method.
