Game Development Course

Content:

The course is structured into three main stages, each introducing a different aspect of game creation.
Participants will not only build a game scene but also understand how movement, balance, and feedback systems come together to create a smooth player experience.

Stage 1: Building the Game World

• Scene structure and layer organization
• Object placement, alignment, and movement rules
• Visual hierarchy and depth perception
• Collision areas and interactive zones
• Character control logic and directional movement
• Background animation and environmental atmosphere design

At this stage, students create the physical foundation of their game world and design their first interactive scenes.

Stage 2: Interaction and Gameplay Dynamics

• Object interaction and trigger systems
• Movement, jumping, gravity, and response timing
• Scoring, points, and feedback loops
• Collectibles, goals, and task systems
• Animation transitions and event-based logic
• Timing, rhythm, and gameplay balance

This stage focuses on bringing the game to life and making the player experience smooth and engaging.

Stage 3: Final Project and Application

• Game concept planning and prototyping
• Level flow and difficulty balance
• Menus, transitions, and score screens
• Testing, feedback, and optimization
• Preparing the final project for presentation and play

In the final stage, students develop and present their own fully playable 2D game.
