About this Course

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.

Level Up

Let's take it to the next level! This week, as you continue to improve the stability and overall implementation of your game, we want to make sure that you hit the requirements for sound and particle systems. These are probably pretty easy things to add to your game (depending on your game!) so use the slack to make progress on the other aspects of your game. Maybe add an extra level if your game has levels.

About the iOS Development for Creative Entrepreneurs Specialization

This Specialization focuses on the basics of iOS application development. You’ll gain the skills you need to create your own app, including fluency in Objective-C and UIKit and SpriteKit user interface concepts, and you’ll learn to leverage networking, security, audio, video, location, and sensor frameworks. In the final Capstone Project, you’ll apply your skills to create a networked game that leverages sensors on the phone to create a unique gaming experience, and that you can showcase in job applications and interviews or offer in the iTunes store.
