CMPM80K: Foundations of Video Game Design

*****COURSES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE*****

A generally accessible course in which students explore how video games (and games generally) shape experiences and express ideas. Students develop novel games, engage in game interpretation, and survey related topics (e.g., game history, technology, narrative, and ethics) through lectures and readings. Programming experience is not required. (General Education Code(s): T2-Natural Sciences, IM - Interpreting Arts and Media)
