Welcome! Our course is an introductory course in video game design and production. We will focus on both the design and technical aspects of creating a game, from concept inception and prototyping through coding and playtesting. This course practices what it preaches with students earning experience points (XP) throughout the semester as opposed to letter grades on assignments. Students must complete a variety of quests (assignments) in order to level up to the point they can pass the course.
Our class meets Monday-Friday 10:30-12:45 in Rice 340. For more information regarding class management, please see the course syllabus.
Here's our current schedule for the course. Check here for readings and assignment due dates along with lecture topics. Actual lectures and assignments can be found posted in the Lectures section.
