Sims Singapore
Yeap, the follow up of the previous post is the birth of this to-be-game on paper. Development of video games and entertainment industry. When entertainment is mentioned here, I would like to state it's only the media especially movies and video games.
In the twinkling of an eye (with that particular accent), I'm about to embark on the final project for this module. This requires a little bit of gaming knowledge and background. That I have little to begin with, shall be backed up by my group mates who spent a huge portion of their lives immersed in clicking the mouse. Nonetheless, there ARE such people around me even in close proximity, so why am I surprised anyway...
Well, it has reached a point where I was called up to talk about 'Sims City Classics' in front of the class so that I might gain some brownie class participation points. I played that game for a short 15minutes and the mechanics of it are basically simple. Budget, grasping the patterns of buildings and of course, the rules set for the mayor to run the city. And from such a simple game developed the Sims City 2000, Urbz on the PS2 and Civilisation with similar game concept and design. Now, that which I almost wrote for my essay, has to be designed on paper and due for submission within 10days. Haha....from something small, these game designers sure can come up with something huge.
And that is the same as the Kindgom of God. A tiny mustard seed is planted in the garden, with the watering of plants and sunlight being the source of live, the seed germinates and grow. Eventually, it becomes a tree. Overtime, the roots strengthen, tree grows and it gets strong enough to stand on its own. Birds will then come and build nest in its branches. Just like how a little bit of yeast would work through the whole dough and permeate into every part of the dough, so it is like the Kingdom of God.
And that's also our job, to spread the jam to the rest of the bread that's empty. "Let those who know, tell those who don't know..." - quote from a revivalist-to-be in SMU.
Ah...
"Life and time will not delay,
Time is running fast away,
Life is now today; today..."
Who gave you 24hours a day?
