In a workshop, the trainees of the IT - Application Development department learned the basics of game development. Topics such as game content, usability, intuitive operation and attractiveness were covered. At the same time, the trainees were familiarized with initial programming methods in a playful manner and got to know one of the most widespread game development environments (Unity).

In the course of the course, a first (individual) jump-and-run game was created under the expert supervision of a renowned game designer, which could be presented at the open day.

Contents included the above mentioned skills as well as elements like event-oriented programming, loops, conditions and variables. The field of application of game engins ranges from classic game development, educational software to industrial simulations or virtual reality.
