Description | The Game Programming and Design concentration is a second-year option of the Game Development diploma program. You start this concentration in the second term of your first year. This concentration focuses primarily on game programming. Games require interaction within an immersive environment that can take many forms – from pure entertainment, to medical and military simulations, to training initiatives. In this concentration, you learn to apply artistic, technical and problem-solving skills, as well as critical thinking and logic, to develop games using the Unity game engine, C# programming language, and JavaScript/HTML 5. You work individually and in groups, to design and develop game prototypes and manage the challenges of the game development cycle for multiple platforms, including web and mobile. You also learn to use object-oriented programming techniques, pre-production design and algorithm designs to develop engaging game content. | | |
