Course Summary

Intelligent Game Design is the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to explore new technologies for creative opportunities to enhance the future of gaming. According to a Forbes article in 2022, with a market value of over US $300 billion, the global gaming industry continues to make great strides and connect millions of gamers worldwide. McKinsey Global Institute study found that by 2030, between 400 million and 800 million employees around the world could be displaced by automation. There are already more than 250 game development companies, with at least two companies coming up every month.

Intelligent Game Design and its Applications is a course that will give students a basic understanding of the principles to be followed in the play and mechanics of game design. They will get an orientation on the genres of games, serious games and their application in industry. They will also get to know the role of different technologies such as AR, VR and AI in game development. Students will gain a 360-degree understanding of the game design process and an opportunity to follow the process to create a rapid prototype on their own. The initial phase of the project will involve formulating a problem statement through user research. This could involve the use of paper and pencil or Google forms.

Hands-On

Students need to perform hands-on assignments and projects using MS/Open Office tools and wireframes. Sketches and mock-ups need to be created using Photoshop and PowerPoint. Students can download Unity personal edition for implementing their game ideas.

Students will have to leverage the above-mentioned tools to complete the industry assignment as well as to complete the Part B section of the summative assessment.
