Game Design: Side-scrolling Adventures (Age 9-11) (YETEC 500)

In the style of Mega Man, Mario and Castlevania, here's your chance to design your own classic side-scroller adventure. You have complete control over the design of this video game and will create your own characters and environments. Design objects that you can pick up to help your avatar and design obstacles to increase the difficulty of the game. Leave with a prototype that you can continue to develop and share with family and friends. Co-sponsored with Utah Division of Games.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Experience learning Unreal Engine software
  • Program essential game mechanics
  • Learn fundamentals of side-scrolling game development
  • Demo other students' projects to provide constructive feedback
