# Absolute Sources

Una lista di risorse universali su cui mi baso per (quasi) tutti i video di game e level design.

> *In futuro arriverà un articolo o pagina di risorse univerali consigliate in dettaglio per argomento e aggiornabile mano a mano che leggo qualcosa di nuovo, soprattutto in ambiti che sto ancora studiando come l'environment design, il visual design e la narrativa, ma anche potenzialmente indie dev, gamification e business*
