During a workshop, we explored the art of creating game poems, a unique way of expressing the essence and themes of a game through poetic language.
Inspired by this workshop, I plan to create game poems based on games I enjoy playing. These poems will serve as both a tribute to these games and a personal exploration of the stories, mechanics, and emotions that make them meaningful.
I will start by selecting a few of my favorite games, reflecting on their key elements, and translating those into poetic formats. Each poem will aim to evoke the same feelings I experienced while playing, offering a fresh perspective on how games can inspire creativity beyond their mechanics and narratives.
This practice will deepen my appreciation for game design while helping me develop creative storytelling skills that I can apply in my own projects.

A joyous yet strategic game,
With a charming 16-bit art style.
Fun yet problematic townsfolk,
In mellow, soft countryside towns.
Peaceful daily routines,
Farming, fishing, crafting, mining,
And fighting monsters,
Packed with fun and adventure.
