FMST 035. Video Game Design and Creation

Introduces students to the basic elements and steps involved in conceptualizing and making games for popular digital platforms. Integrating readings on the aesthetics and genres of video gaming, our collaborative workshop environment will use web-based game development tools to craft both simple and complex games that build and comment on the histories, pleasures, and politics of the video game medium. Course work includes short creative assignments, readings, discussions, weekly gameplay, and a final project.
