Cognitive Science 0307 - Game Development Workshop

In this course, students will improve their digital game development skills and portfolios by working as a specialized member of a small team. As a prerequisite, students must have expertise in one or more game development disciplines, including 3D modeling, 3D animation, 2D animation, painting, programming, audio design, game design, or project management. The professor will provide game direction, but students will be responsible for developing all aspects of the games themselves. Students will pitch ideas for games and will work on games of their choice. Students will be encouraged to develop games using Unity and make the games available for free. All assets and code generated in the class will be released to the public domain. Prerequisite: At least two completed courses in a discipline or disciplines related to game development(programming, art, design, audio, management, etc.).
