CIS 300: Introduction to Computer Game Design

Assignment 1
Preferences and Background

Submit a .txt file describing the following three things

  1. Your project preferences: This can either be simply the genres of games you'd be interested in working on, or it could be a description of a particular idea that you've been thinking about, or it could even be a specification of the kind of subproject you want to handle (like a strategic AI system, or an adaptive music algorithm, or a non-linear story). This can be as short as a couple of lines, or as long as several pages if you like.
  2. Your intended role in the group: Indicate what specific development role, other than design (which everyone will do), that you'll have in the group. (artist, programmer, programming with some art, writing with some programming, music, etc)
  3. Your game development background: List any courses, projects, and experiences that you've had up until now that are relevant to game development. This is to get an idea of your overall level of game design experience, and also your technical ability in your particular area (art, programming, writing, music, etc),

Hand in the assignment using CMS. (If you have trouble, email it to Mohan)
