Game Design 2016

We just finished this year’s course on Game Design at the University of Twente for the bachelor Creative Technology. It was the first time I was responsible for this course and I liked working on it very much, and fortunately the students also responded quite positive. The course was formed around some of the topics of Jesse Schell’s book on Game Design. In total the workload was only 4EC so we couldn’t cover all the basics unfortunately. As one part of the course (+-36hrs pp) the students created a “2D” game in Unity, either as 1 player game or allowing only for “multiplayer” on one keyboard.

The students created quite some nice games in Unity for the final project of this course. In total we had over 70 students working on games, mostly in duos.
Some games really turned out well, so enjoy playing them and feel free to contact those gifted fresh game designers to continue their work!

In this gallery I posted a subset of the games that can be found in the table at the bottom of this page.
