Emagister adds to its catalogue the Game Design Academy course endorsed by Zenva.
Game design is the set of principles that cover how to handle the creative and technical aspects of a game. From conceptualizing the levels and characters to creating an engaging story and building a cohesive “feel” throughout the game, these techniques inform how your game comes to life. With them, you’ll be able to create games that are fun and engaging, and that are crafted for success!
With Game Design Academy, you’ll explore these principles through real-world examples, and discover how each fundamental concept plays a role in the overall vision of a game. You’ll master techniques used by industry professionals, and learn how to make purposeful and functional design choices in your own game projects. Regardless of the kind of games you wish to build, these skills will help you to bring your ideas to life like never before!
This curriculum gives you all the tools needed to start designing games – featuring introductory modules for those who have never coded before, to intermediate courses perfect for more experienced developers looking to branch out into new specializations, Game Design Academy is designed to help you succeed.
