Prompt 5- “Drawing Tool” is a mesmerizing tool especially when using the mirror mode tool. Comparing it to a drug is hard, but I assume it means to compare it to having your only view of the world through it. I feel as though your only way of viewing the world through it would make you appreciate the sheer complexity of the world around you while still making  you appreciate the elegance of it all. What do I mean? Well in the game you are able to choose many options for drawing yet they’re all kept to a simple brush with the special brush and random brush tool providing the random element that the world seems to have everywhere we look. The simplicity of red black and blue brushes reminds you of school and pens you would use, where you could also choose a random color and make anything you want but the convenience that you would normally have in everyday life is taken from you and you must work to get the color and brush you desire. Not only is this a metaphor for the rewards of hard work and labor in life but it also makes you appreciate and use the color more than you normally would. Taking something such as being able to pick the exact color you want at any given moment and turning it into chance not only adds some excitement to it but it shows us how much  we’re shaped our world to convenience us at every turn and working hard for the simple things is no longer needed unless forced upon us.
