Like art in any genre or category, art in video games has evolved a long way since the pixel art of early 8-bit games. Over the years gaming art heavily relies visual and interactive design to engage users. Where the evolution of these games succeeded is taking simple game mechanics and displaying them in an accessible format. As this art style evolved many lessons were learned, how can we take what was learned in video game art and apply it in a design that successfully informs users about financial topics? As the capacity of games increased over time from 8 bit, to 16 bit and eventually to 3d it allowed for more immersive gameplay. In the same way, how can we utilize these technologies to create an immersive experience for the user?
