New Video Game Production Course offered in Spring
This spring ACCAD will be offering a unique video game production class. Over the course of the quarter, a small group of students will work in teams composed of artists, programmers, and sound engineers to create a video game. They'll be implementing the game on a real arcade cabinet built by instructor, Peter Gerstmann. "I've built an arcade cabinet to showcase the students' work" says Peter. "It's very similar to the old arcade machines of the 80's, except it houses a modern computer inside, and runs our games. the arcade machine is full-size (about six feet tall) with a 27" monitor, and can support up to four simultaneous players, each with a joystick and four buttons." This course is offered as Arts Col 753 (02370-2) for Spring quarter.
