Amcanion cyffredinol
3D game design offers a range of new ways for the player to interact with the fictional world of the game, while offering new challenges to the designer who must engage with space and place in new ways. In this module you will learn the skills of 3D development and apply world and level design skills to the creation of a 3D game for playing on a computer screen or virtual reality headset. You will develop your design experience through an introduction to rapid game prototyping. You will learn to finish a game at the end of a fixed time, have a core of a game that is fun, select the best idea from a set of alternatives, and test the technical feasibility of an idea. You will complete a workabler prototype by the end of the module, and you will maintain a production diary which includes plans, revisions and critical reflection on process.
