2011: T151 Digital Worlds: designing games, creating alternative realities
Wow!! This has to have been my favourite 10 points so far. I learned about what makes a game a good game, not just in the realm of computer games but in games in general. And throughout the course we got to design different levels of game from the bottom up, dealing with how the sprites collide etc.
Simply playing with the GameMaker software ate up so much time!!
For my final assignment I made a maze game where a fireman would have to rescue people from a damaged building while being chased by flickering flame 'ghost' characters a-la Pacman.
I've learned more on other courses but I have to say this one sticks in my mind as the most FUN, and it did exactly what I had hoped for as a break from the intensity of the web courses before starting back to 'proper' (in my mind) 30 point programming work.
Washing basket?? What washing basket?
