1. Course Description

The 3D First Person Shooter (FPS) Game Development course aims to train participants to understand the fundamental concepts of 3D game development, implemented in the form of a 3D FPS micro-game. Participants in this course are expected to have a basic understanding of mathematical logic and programming algorithms. The course covers materials such as POV Movement, Shooting Projectile, Scoring System, and Win/Lose Condition. The teaching method is a combination of modules, videos, and self-directed practice using a "Predefined Game Project."

2. Course Outcomes

• Participants are able to create PC-based First Person Shooter (FPS) movement.
• Participants are able to develop 3D projectile mechanics.
