Logical and Creative Ideas

Hi there,
Lets get today into the discussion of most important things to create a  game content. As we all are aware of the fact that game is nothing but a puzzle created with many integrated logics and presented with creativity. So, from this fact we can know how important are these 2 things, that is "logics" and "Creativity". In order to make games one should know how to bring out game logics with creative ideas.

Many of us are very good puzzle solvers but only few will be good puzzle creaters. This variation you can easily find out. This is because the good puzzle creators are the best puzzle solvers. It is very obvious from this that in order to increase our skill level in puzzle creation, we should make our brain fed by ideas by solving more and more puzzles every day. And how does this happen? Only just by playing a lot of games. I have seen many sites display that they a category of games called "puzzle games". But it's really pity for such statements. Because any game that is made or build uses a puzzle or we can say game is a puzzle. so their is no such thing that they are puzzle games and non puzzle games. Some games may have lot of puzzles to solve and some may have less. It all matters with how beautifull and interesting the puzzles are made.

The game may be a simple casual game to highend graphics based 3d game but it is common that a set of logics are required to create to make game. If the game logic is good it goes'nt matter whether the game is a casual game or hifi 3d game. So a game developer must have good level of observation along with creation.

Why Observation? Observing other game ideas will help in creating new type of puzzles every time. It is very tough for some one to create from scratch an out and out topic and very new idea which does'nt exist before. Despite creating new is nothing but taking parts of existing ideas and changing their proposions of logics and mixing them in a way to produce a wide different idea from others. In order to make such unique different ideas one should observe lot of other ideas.

for example:
you are planning to cook a new dish and present to customers so that to make a good business out. If you have less ingredients then the possiblity of making a very wide creation will be less. But if you have a lot of ingredients then you will be sure to create a very unique dish. So,in the same way game developers also needs to observe and learn more logics to produce good games.
