The RPI Game Development Club
The Game Development Club is here to provide support and encouragement in the creation of computer and console games by RPI students. If you have any questions or information, or need any help, contact us at gdc_officers-l@….
We meet every Wednesday night from 8:00 to 10:00 PM in Lally 102 to work on game projects, hold design activities, give tutorials, and more. Everyone with an interest in game making is welcome to attend!
Keep up with events and activities by joining our Facebook group or checking our Google calendar.
We hold many types of activities and events both during and outside of our meetings. Here's some of what we do:
Forums
Feel free to join us at our forums: http://gamedev.union.rpi.edu/forum/index.php
Production Projects
Every semester we organize small groups to work on game production projects over the course of that semester. Teams of about 4 people work together in and out of meeting times to create a small game within that time-frame.
Game Jams
We hold Game Jams usually once a semester. These are competitions to make games in a short amount of time using some theme mechanic. Our last one was September 6, 2008; you can see the results and play the games here. The next Game Jam will be sometime later this semester.
Misc.
We also sometimes give tutorials, hold design activities to help boost creativity, organize a trip to the Montreal International Game Summit every semester, and more. Also, anyone with a project or idea separate from our club activities is welcome to use our meetings to recruit people, show off their work, etc.
