Here are some useful articles that will help you get started!

Ideation step-by-step

Study the market and identify the trends.
Turn the trend into a gameplay OR apply it to an already existing mechanic.
Spot underserved opportunities in the stores.Be mindful with copycats: always add value to the idea! Creativity in HC is about improving some of the game dimensions. When getting inspiration, finding your game pivot/ improvement is crucial.
Lastly, compile references to submit to the ideation module. 😊

Remember!

Study the market
Use your analysis findings to ideate
Don’t be afraid to use original references like sketches, drawings, game prototypes
Add your own twist to the gameplay
Don’t just clone an existing game
Don’t make your scope unachievable (you’re not making the next Fortnite)
Don’t be afraid to stand out
