IMMT 248 - Programming for Video Games

Institution:

Columbus State Community College

Subject:

Description:

This course introduces students to the basics of 2D game programming using the JAVA language. It starts out by explaining the basics of writing a simple 2D vector-based game (i.e., using lines and filled polygons) that evolves into a fully featured sprite-based game by the end of the course. Students will learn about Java’s graphics classes, and how to get input from the user and how to play sound effects and music – all within the context of an online game. Previous knowledge of Java is recommended, but not required; students who have never used Java before should be able to keep up if they keep a Java primer or reference book handy.
