Computer Games - ZEIT2305 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Description Computer Games are a multi-billion dollar industry - larger than the Hollywood film industry in revenue. Modern computer games are also sophisticated software products delivered by large teams of technical experts. The course uses computer games as a lens on many of the major topics in computer science. Those topics include 3D graphics, artificial intelligence, networking, user interfaces, simulation, and hardware (e.g. the consoles). Further, the course addresses "serious games" - the use of games for education, training and experimentation, particularly by the military. Practical work will include the focussed play and evaluation of a number of games, together with content creation for games.
