We're looking for programming students this spring. If you are interested,
or know someone who may be interested, please contact me. Thanks.

 

GAME 1010 Video Game Programming (42.0 hours/$459.00)
This course serves as an introduction for any student in the Video Games
Program to the role of the programmer in the development of a game, what
games look like from a programmer's viewpoint, and how programmers translate
game designs, artistic specifications and production requirements into code.
It will include hands-on programming using Java to drive the concepts home.
Cross-discipline collaboration, communication and compromise are key
concepts in game development.

GAME 1020 Tools Programming (42.0 hours/$459.00)
Every game development team will write or adapt tools for making the
development easier. They could be simple tools for gathering the game
program and data and pushing it to the target device, or could be complex
tools like level editors. Since bad tools can sometimes be worse than no
tools at all, it is important for a well-rounded game programmer to have
thought about the role of tools in a game's development. That is the reason
this course is a requirement. Topics include: When should you make a tool?;
Common tool patterns; Commercial tools and components; Open source tools and
components; Making your user's life easier, even if it makes your job
harder; The responsibility of maintenance; Pipelines; Cross team tool
issues. Prerequisites: Video game Programming, C/C++ Programming Experience
or consent of instructor.

from other platforms, memory limits, user interface differences, and how to
maximize use of what's available on the console. Prerequisites: Video game
Programming, C/C++ Programming Experience or consent of instructor.
