Game design and development pathway students have been practicing game design for a game that supports the Keep America Beautiful non-profit.  Every student completed a game design document.  Then students created a drawing, identified a theme and genre, determined their audience, key pillars, features, main aim, enablers, blockers, win conditions and lose conditions.  They created a very basic gray box version of their game for KAB in Unity.  Though some students incorporated working elements, it is not intended to be a working version.  It is intended to be a very basic mock-up based on their planning in their game design document.  However, these students went above and beyond.  Enjoy these exemplar screencasts of gray boxing from Jane, Sam, Caden, and Ryan.  Listen for industry terms and vocabulary that students are learning and applying.

We have been practicing 2D game development in Unity using the Unity Learn platform, and a 2D Game Kit Walkthrough tutorial.  Students followed the tutorial, created a new scene, and added all of the prefabs demonstrated in these videos.  Then they narrated these screencasts in February, 2024.  They include demonstrations of elements such as moving platforms, a door with a pressure pad, enemies, damage, sprites, teleporting, and use of prefabs with scripting.
