Fall 2016

2D

GDAD Capstone Course

The 2D Capstone Course in the GDAD Program at the University of Texas at Austin occurs each fall, and challenges students to utilize all their new skills to create a final project. Undergraduates from the Center for Arts and Entertainment Technologies, Computer Science Department, and Radio-Television-Film Department were assigned to one of five teams, and each team developed their own unique 2D video game. These Fall 2016 projects were presented at a Digital Demo Day where faculty, students and industry professionals asked students about the work and process behind each game.

Below are the results of the Capstone (Download – Unity Web Player).
