Now you have learned to create a game, let’s see how to create a prototype for your idea. In this session, we'll start by unraveling the mysteries of design thinking in order to generate innovative solutions. Learn how to apply design thinking principles to the context of game development and explore how these strategies can help you create games that are not only engaging and entertaining but also meaningful and impactful. Next, we'll embark on a journey of discovery as we identify the key challenges addressed by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). By understanding the SDGs, we'll gain valuable insights into the real-world problems that our games can help address. Armed with this knowledge, we'll unleash our creativity and imagination as we generate a myriad of ideas for our games, exploring different concepts, mechanics, and narratives that align with the goals and objectives of the SDGs. But ideas alone are not enough—we'll need to bring our vision to life through the creation of a prototype. Learn what a prototype is and we'll roll up our sleeves and dive into the exciting world of prototyping as we learn how to sketch, design, and prototype our game ideas.
Summary of topics we will be covering:
- What is design thinking?
- Identify problems
- Generate ideas
- What is a prototype?
- How to sketch/design your prototype?
- Start to do your prototype
