VERSIÓN EN ESPAÑOL Probablemente, todos hemos jugado a algún videojuego, pero ¿qué hay detrás de él? Podemos decir que - con independencia del videojuego - hay un árduo trabajo multidisciplinar que incluye desde aspectos de diseño hasta la programación como tal del videojuego. Este curso pretende ser un curso introductorio que muestre qué aspectos hay que considerar en el videojuego, y que permita con posterioridad abordar individualmente los temas que se consideran nucleares: diseño, arte, motor del videojuego y 'game play'. Al completar este curso introductorio, podrás identificar, nombrar y explicar la importancia de los diferentes aspectos que hay que considerar al diseñar un videojuego. Pretendemos también que puedas evaluar qué partes del videojuego te interesan más, de cara a que puedas seguir un curso específico sobre esa temática, o bien, si deseas el conocimiento global, puedas abordar todo el programa especializado. Estarás listo para abordar más en profundidad estos temas nucleares (diseño, arte, motor del videojuego y 'gameplay') que se cubren de forma individualizada y en detalle en el resto de cursos del programa especializado. IMPORTANTE Puedes seguir el curso también en Inglés (subtítulos y cuestionarios). __________________ ENGLISH VERSION We have all probably played a video game at least once in our life, but... what's behind them? We can say that -no matter what game it is- there's a difficult multidisciplinary work that involves factors that go from the design to the video game's programming. This is an introductory course that will show you which aspects we must consider in the video game, and it will subsequently help you to individually study the different videogames creation's nucleus: design, art, video game engine and gameplay. When you finish this introductory course, you will be able to identify, tell and explain the importance of the many aspects we must consider when designing a video game. We also want you to be able to avaluate which parts of a video game you're most interested in, so that you can later take the specific course on this topic -if you seek global knowledge you can see all the specialised program. Then you'll be ready to study more deeply these main topics -design, art, video game engine and gameplay- which are individually studied with detail during the other courses of the specialized program. IMPORTANT You are able to follow this course in English (subtitles and quizzes).

Which characteristics can a video game have?

Many of them.

First of all, the graphics, which can be in 2D or 3D.

They go from vectors,

2D and 3D cartoons, to hyper-realistic 3D images.

This realism degree is very important in 3D-graphics games,

because they give the game the necessary immersion degree.

We can see three different examples of the two-dimensional platform game with

a very simple structure; going then to a more three-dimensional game,

also inside the platforms genre but with a more fantastic image;

and then we finally have God of Wars 3, which is a more realistic

game with very realistic people and highly realistic motions.

Another important video games characteristic is the animation part, that is

the characters' movements, which can go from highly realistic,

such as the sports video games, in which the players' movements

have been captured by high-precision devices,

or more fantastic and cartoon-like motions.

if our art style is more artistic or more cartoonish.

Sound and special effects are also an important part of

the player's immersion,

as the more realistic the sound is, the closer

the player feels to the situation.

There is also a 3D sound idea, in which sound

points the player where the different objects are placed in a three-dimensional space.

Platforms are nowadays very important when

creating a video game, as

the platform is the place where the game will be executed and tested.

There are three basic kinds of platform:

The video game consoles,

which are a very specialized hardware in the

video games field, in graphic, audio and image quality level.

There are a few models on the market.

On the other hand we have personal computers, which are computers with

no specific purposes but during the last years have gained a lot of graphics

capacity and can run high-quality graphics games.

And during the last years, the appearance of the cell

phones or smart phones, has given another platform option

more accessible to everybody and which, during the last years,

have evolved both at graphics and processing level.

This has allowed cell phones to become a gaming platform, whose quality keeps

improving. At the moment, they haven't achieved the high quality game consoles and

computers have right now, but if they keep evolving they most probably will.

It is also true that the appearance of video games in cell phones

has made possible the creation of video games less focused

on the high-quality graphics and more focused on the concept of

originality and innovation in the part of the game's design.

That way, small group works have created

cell phone video games with a high success rate.

Their price is also one of the most important

characteristics when speaking about those games.

They are in a really wide price range, with more expensive or

cheap prices depending on the complexity of the video game and its creation process.

In the beginning, years ago, it was usual, specially in console video

games, the purchase of games in DVD format,

so the whole game was inside the DVD.

Nowadays, thanks to Internet's appearance and the possibility

of connecting all those video consoles and computers, allows us to download a part

of the game from the Internet at a low cost, even for free, and

any expansion, any property we can add to it,

whether they are new features, new characters, etc.

can be achieved, can be bought in aim

to keep playing or getting to higher levels.

This gives place to a more constant business model,

and assists in the games'

evolution, setting away the closed code games from before.

Interaction is one of the things that has recently

improved a lot.

Going from contact devices such as any controller

with buttons and little joysticks to

contactless devices such as Kinect, Leap Motion

or augmented reality technologies, in which the player doesn't need

to know how the commands work inside the game, he only needs movements

either from the hands or the whole body.

Even in augmented reality systems, through some marks, they can

achieve a more agile interaction with the video game.

This is one of the trends lately being promoted

inside the video games world.

The appearance of Internet also allows a socialization using

the video games' resources, the online games

allow cooperative games in which different players have to communicate.

An important point is that we must take into account

in video games is their rating, what range of age is the

recommended one for the video game. There's a code, called PEGI,

which is an orientation mechanism on the suitable age of those games,

that video game industry has established,

and tells us the age ranges

in which playing is recommended,

which are from 3, 6, 12, 16 or 18 years old on. They also are tagged with the sensitive

information the game has, or the topics we may find in it,

such as bad language, discrimination, use of drugs, etcetera,

so this way the future player will know about the video game

contents, and at what age it is suitable,

or even playable.
