  • Create Computer Games
    ==== ==== For A Great Way On How Games Are Played Tips Check This Out www.gamesexamples.com ==== ==== I’ve always loved video games, ever since I first played them on a friend’s computer in the afternoon after elementary school. There’s something almost magical about the fact that we can move images around and interact with virtual worlds, a living fantasy presented for us to interact with however we please. I’ve also always wanted to make games myself but, until recently, didn’t have the technical knowledge to do so. Now, I’m a second year software engineering student, so if I weren’t able to code a game without too many dramas there’d be something drastically wrong. But what about the common person: the person for whom the term ‘memory leak’ conjures up images of their grandfather, ‘pipeline’ is where the water flows, and ‘blitting’ is unheard of? Well, everyone can get in on the game creation process, and you don’t even need to learn ‘real’ programming to do so. So where do games start? With an idea. Games, like all fiction, require an idea to be successful. Sure, in the same way you can just sit down and write a story without foresight, you can jump on in and slap a game together. However, unless you get ridiculously lucky, the best works are usually the ones that have been well thought out beforehand. There are two methods of planning a project.

  • Game Development Projects
    Game Development Projects The purpose of the Game Development Projects is to introduce you to modern game development tools, exercise your game design skills, and help you build a portfolio of game development work. Each project has three parts: a proposal, a deliverable, and a post-mortem. Project Types For each assignment, you should choose one from the five kinds of games below. Then choose one or more of the development tools associated with that kind of game. You can choose projects in any order. You may not repeat a project or a tool (even if it is listed for multiple projects). If you wish to make a type of game that is not listed below or use a tool not listed, you must get approval from the instructor before submitting the project proposal. 1. Physical Board or Card Game Tools: Paper, Cardstock, Markers, Game Pawns, Dice, 3D Printing, etc. 2. Adventure Game Tools: Inform, Twine, Adventure Game Studio 3. Puzzle Game Tools: Game Maker Studio, Torque 2D, Unity, HTML 5, Java, Objective C 4. Arcade Game Tools: Game Maker Studio, Torque 2D, Unity, HTML 5, PyGame 5. 3D Action Game Tools: Unity, Unreal Engine, Torque 3D Scope The difficulty of implementing your project determines how innovative it needs to be. The projects above are listed from “requires most innovation” to “requires least innovation.” All projects require some original design on your part. It is expected that a physical game will require the least development effort and should therefore demonstrate that you have put a lot of thought into the design process.
