Bournemouth University short course on games development

Earlier this month I ran a short course on games development for a Danish further educaton college here at Bournemouth University. The tuition over the week was modelled after a professional short course which forms part of the School’s existing portfolio of similar courses which is focusing on the opportunity to provide expert knowledge in specialist subjects. The Danish students, aged 17-22, attended lectures and lab sessions in diverse topics on the chosen subject matter.

During the course I challenged small groups to create their own professional-quality, first person shooter (FPS) 3D game level using the industry-standard Unreal Editor, as developed by Epic Games and used in titles such as Unreal Tournament and Gears Of War.
