Friday,November 20: Public Talk- Learn how to make your own video game! Talk 2 of 3

Since we ran out of time to advertise this talk last time, we are hosting it again for those who missed it.

This is a series of 3 talks on how to design your own video game for the personal computer. This is talk 2 of 3 “Game Architecture”

Talk 1: Game development tools
A programmer’s overview of what sorts of game development libraries and tools are out there, what they do, and how to choose ones that work for you.

Talk 2: Game architecture
The basics of what goes into a game, how to organize your code, what the entity-component model is and why it’s awesome.

Talk 3: Game performance
Keeping your frame-rate smooth, common mistakes and design patterns, and what to not worry about.

This is a free talk and demonstration open to the public. Event starts at 7pm. We are in the garage around back on Watson St. Look for our flag.
