Is Obsession a good thing or a bad thing?

In most movies that I have seen, the filmmakers often portray obsessions as a bad thing. Is that the case? 


I would argue that we all need a certain level of obsessions in anything we do before producing great and remarkable work; work that we are proud of sharing.


At one point in our lives, we had a dream which is so crazy that people will think your just too naive. It could be as simple as publishing your very own magazine while in school or declaring that every home in the world would have a personal computer in a couple of years. Without context, most of us would consider these as crazy dreams. But for the obsessive few, it was the only thing they could think of, every night and day until it became a reality. The two crazy dreams here if you haven't guess they are from Richard Branson, the Virgin group Tycoon and Steve Job, the founder of Apple and Pixar.


One had an obsession with sharing stories while the other to make personal computers. I know many view obsessions as a bad thing, well it can be if we obsess over something negative, but it also can be something beautiful when we have the right goals. 


To those who want to challenge the status quo, do remarkable work, achieve greatness, I urge you to find meaningful obsessions. The world will be a better place because of it.

Horror Atmosphere Part 1

Now I would like to talk about, designing horror. Here is a basic breakdown on horror techniques. Basics Tips and Concepts to Keep in Mind as You Make Your Horror Film This part I will be focusing on the Layout of the game. The game is  PT Demo Mix with Affected . Player will be stuck in a loop and each loop there is objective player need to complete to progress. The Objective could opening the door and pick up a object in a particular room, or there a sequence of triggers the player have to follow to complete the game. For more detail, do contact me. The idea for the game, is that all ages should be able to pick it up and play. I like this approach as the young and old would not be leafed out. I design games primary for all ages. The controls must be simple and intuitive for player to use. The objective and game play must be visible clear and accomplished by many [need my play-test sessions.]. However, do to it being a horror game, player below 12 are not advisable to pla...
