Overview

Video games are no longer only an entertainment, as there is a growing industry where video games are being considered as professional sports. They are influencing the modern culture so much, that some universities are now even offering scholarships to professional gamers. But in order to gamers to showcase their talents, there needs to be innovation at the basic level through the games developers. This Game Development Course can help you fill up that role by helping you to learn how to develop your own games.

This course, like all good materials starts with an introduction to game creation, where you will also learn about the essential tools you will need for that endeavour. You will also understand the basics of game design and take a look at different 2D & 3D game creation softwares in the market. Next you focus a bit more on 3D game creation and learn about game modification. Furthermore you also learn about how to create a game on a social site as well.

In the supporting materials section, you will find plenty of materials that will help you create your own game, and make a splash in the green.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
