Video Game Development Project.

Hey all, for school we have to do a project on Video Game Devleopment and was wondering if anyone here had some first hand knowledge on the subject.

Not anything recently. I made a simple side-scroller in java years ago.

Your school is pretty awesome if you have to do a project on this subject.

I did a small game for an iPaq about a month ago but nothing major.

I think Creep does game design or something like that, you may be better waiting for his input.

DK/DaKilla does something with gaming too, if I recall correctly.

Well it's not mandatory for the school to do it, but for the course I am in it is.

I made blackjack in C++ once. Then I forgot it all.

DK is a pharmacist. Not sure if he does any gaming projects on the side though.

If he's a pharmacist, then he's also got a hell of an imagination:

Pretty interesting, really.

Now imagine you're a child who recently suffered a stroke and no longer have full motion control over your hand.

The games are designed to utilize hand motions to help the children regain full control over their hands. Basically they're normal games just that instead of being controlled via PS3 controller, they're controlled via hand motions.
