Welcome to Wayne's Games Design Course
What on a Games Design course?
This is different from college to college and uni to uni.
However, as a general rule of thumb, the first year One is considered the foundation year. It's all about getting the core skills they need. Games designers work with game artists, animators, audio engineers and game programmers. They need these skills.
Games Designers are the glue in the middle of the games design process and in some ways need to be a jack of all trades, who can make 3D models, animate and program. They are not necessarily the best at doing this but they need to understand all these skills.
So a games design course need to reflect this!
The main role however I believe of a games designer is in the title. Its to decide what a game will look like and how it will be played.
As a lecturer at university. I teach games design at all levels (including masters). I use a variety of teaching styles to approach this. I do believe that one the best way is to use videos so I have a YouTube channel dedicated to the making of games. So pls check out my YouTube channel for my teaching vids and game reviews!
