Dev Log 1 - Conducting Research for Game Design

In the first week of diving into the topic of "Wealth Inequality", I started with an extensive research phase. I delved into economic studies, historical data, and articles that explored wealth inequality from various sources. I also looked into the existing games that touch on economic themes to get inspiration and understand the market.

One key concept I found during my research was the Gini coefficient, a measure of income inequality. It fascinated me, and I thought it could be a central element in the game's mechanics.

This week was all about gathering knowledge and laying the foundation for a game that is related to wealth inequality. The more I learned about wealth inequality, the more passionate I became about creating a game that could let players experience and manipulate this mechanic. The next step would be to translate these ideas into game mechanics and design elements.
