Curso 6 de 6 em Specialization Desenvolvimento móvel em iOS para Empreendedores Criativos

Students will produce a networked game that will leverage sensors on the phone to create a unique gaming experience. The focus of the game will be to make it physical through real-world gestures, motion and knowledge of other players real-world location. To do this students will need to integrate knowledge of graphics, networking, sensors, and user interface design alongside a skill set of tool usage. The final project will involve milestones with opportunities to get ungraded peer review feedback from fellow learners so that they can iterate and improve their game program. The final networked game that the students produce would be something they could showcase in job application materials, in an interview, or offer in the iTunes store.

The Project and the Plan

In this module we go through the project that you will be working on for this capstone class. We look at the details of what the requirements are and talk a little bit about how to go about finding some of the assets that you might want to use. The first week is all about planning and designing.

The final example we'd like to give you, by way of inspiring you in to different

ways in which that physicality can make a difference in your game,

is a game called Dual.

Now like Ingress, Dual is not a game that if you turned in would

meet the requirements or is sort of the target of what we're looking for.

But again, we present it as a spark for your creativity, to see if there's

something about it that might cause you to think about gameplay in a different way.

So Dual, also I'm going to have you go out and watch the trailer.

There are two different trailers.

The first one is on Vimeo and that's showing kind of two people playing it, and

that gives you a really good sense for sort of the physicality of it.

And then the second one is a different kind of view.

It's a little bit more focused on what you see on the screen.

So, I'll give you a second to go out and watch those two.

They're about three or four minutes each.

Pause the video, and when you're done watching them, come back.

Okay, welcome back.

So what you saw in those games is an example, again,

of physicality in the devices.

Because as the users who are playing the game against each other wanted to

control their little avatar,

their little pong paddle spaceship shooter thing, they had to tilt the device

side by side in order to move their ship around on the environment.

And then there was some shooting action.

I think the shooting was happening when they were touching the screen.

And then, Dual introduced this idea in which,

when one person's bullets went off one side of the screen,

they arrived on the other side on the other person's screen coming in.

And so in that way,

it gave this impression of being able to play across a space between two devices.

Now again, Dual is a game that requires physical device motion, and

that aspect of the game is something we would like you to have in your game.

And this maybe can trigger some ideas of how that interaction might happen.

Now what we don't expect, because we haven't trained you on it,

is to do a multi-device multi-player game.

Now if you'd like to do a multi-player game in which two players play

on the same device, that's great, go for it.

That could be done by having different regions on the screen where player one and

player two play against each other.

That particularly makes sense on maybe a larger screen like an iPad.

So if you want to have a multi-player game in which two people are playing

on the same device, that would be okay.

We haven't really given you enough capacity, and

we don't really have our peer review set up in such a way that we could evaluate

two players playing on different devices.

Nonetheless, we do want your game to have physicality.

Dual incorporates that in a way that would be great if you had it in your game.

And that gives a third and final example of some ways in which the physicality of

the device impacts gameplay, and

maybe will spark some ideas for how you want to do it in your game.

Thank you.
