Software Development & Gaming Summer School
Explore Software Development & Gaming in Immersive Summer School
- A game designer is a person in charge of creating and developing video games from content (characters, script, motivations, challenges) to mechanics (gameplay). Game designers are to thank for some of our most treasured games, from solitaire to Roblox, from Minecraft to Candy Crush. Being a game designer is one of the most creative growing fields in today’s modern world where games are literally in the palm of our hands. The aim of this programme is to provide you with an in-depth understanding of what game design entails with the skills and knowledge you can take away to pursue game-making independently.
- Based at our UCL campus in central London, you will form an understanding of the foundational principles of game design and how to apply them to real-world game creation. You will learn how to design game scenarios and characters, create game mechanics and dynamics, observe and learn from different game genres, create games and code using Construct 2, and publish your final results so that others can access your game.
