FURTHER INFORMATION

Further Information

  • valid for whole curriculum period:

    The amount of work can often be over the limit of 6 credits, so more credits will be given to students who work more through the Independent project course code. Remember that this course will take a lot of time outside the weekly Thursday afternoon sessions, as most of the game development happens outside the official schedules - so do leave space to your weekly schedules if you take this course.
