Design and Graphics Programming for Game Development

This class will give all the theoretical fundamentals to design, develop and evaluate videogames. Those principles will make the participants aware of user-centric development. Furthermore, the students will acquire the technical knowledge required to integrate advanced methods for rendering real-time 2D computer graphics and techniques currently used in game development. In this context, students will develop simple games, by developing an idea, producing a design document, and by implementing the interactive application.
