Learning Game Design with Arcade Berg

Game Design Concepts – Internet Course

Ian Schreiber, a professional Game Designer and co-author of the book Challenges for Game Designers (ISBN-10: 158450580X) is doing something really, really cool.

He's holding a course on Game Design this summer by posting on a blog. Anyone can partake and it's free of charge.

This blog is a course in game design (specifically, non-digital systems design).

• Tuition: none. This class is open to all.
• Prerequisites: none. It is my intention to make this course accessible to all levels of experience, while providing useful additional resources for those who are advanced.
• Schedule: Monday 6/29/2009 through Sunday 9/6/2009. Posts will be made twice per week. You can read them at your own pace. The course lasts ten weeks.
• Audience: anyone with an interest in game design. This includes students who are interested in game design; faculty who teach courses in game design and would like to compare course material; game developers with an interest in design or a desire to see an example of what students are being taught these days; or relatives of game designers who are curious about what these people do all day.

I'm about to sign up right now!
