Video Games on Syllabus for Popular Computer Science and Engineering Class

Dust bunnies that want to eat your food. A tentacle monster that is holding you prisoner on a space ship. Rocket pilots who are trying to steal resources away from you. These are some of the foes featured in video games designed—from scratch—by students in Computer Science and Engineering 125. As part of the course, students create everything from graphics and sound, to networking, to models and animation, in addition to setting up a server for the game.
