This course is an intensive game development studio that focuses on production process and production pipeline management for students working in small collaborative teams. It takes students through the full development process for a digital game. Students receive a request for proposals to develop a branded game, pitch their concepts, and deliver a finished title by the end of the semester. During the course students will follow the real-world processes and stages of developing a game for and communicating with a potential client who does not understand the game design or production process. Emphasis will also be placed on the soft skills of collaboration in group dynamics.

This course is an intensive, semester-long project based class concentrating on the fundamentals of design process: the approaches, frameworks, and techniques needed to address large-scale, research-based work. Students will identify domains of interest, research an area of interest, create design questions, articulate a concept/inquiry, and respond by designing an interactive experience relevant to the outlined domain and context.
