Game Implementation In Real-Time Using The Project Tango, Samantha R. Bhuiyan
Computer Science and Software Engineering
The goal of this senior project is to spread awareness of augmented reality, which Google defines as “a technology that superimposes a computer-generated image on a user's view of the real world, thus providing a composite view.” It’s a topic that is rarely known to those outside of a technology related field or one that has vested interest in technology. Games can be ideal tools to help educate the public on any subject matter. The task is to create an augmented reality game using a “learn by doing” method. The game will introduce players to augmented reality, and thus demonstrate …

The card game High-Low is a cooperative game that provides a unique problem of where all players have partial information and build off other players guesses to win the game. This problem lends itself to creating an AI bot that can play the game with other human players. By making decisions that change as the other players make guesses through the rounds, we have created an AI bot that plays the game with a good degree of accuracy.

The Struggle Of The Rubiniumite Wars, Timothy Mendez, Evan Peterson, Darren Huang, Kyle Lozier
Computer Science and Software Engineering
The Struggle of the Rubiniumite Warsis a browser-based, one- to two-player, simultaneous turn-based strategy game set amongst the stars. It uses WebGL and Three.js for 3D graphics in the browser, Node.js for game engine and artificial intelligence design on the backend, and Socket.io for networking using websockets. The development group’s inspiration, motivation, and reflections are discussed. Additionally, details on the development of the game engine, database integration with Parse, user registration with Nodemailer, graphics with Three.js and HTML/CSS, and audio with HTML5.

Computer Science and Software Engineering
The Ground Is Lava! is a three dimensional video game written in C++ that uses OpenGL as its graphics API. The game is competitive, with two to four players controlling characters from a first-person perspective. The project implements multiple graphics technologies in order to achieve a consistent, pleasing visual style, including shadow mapping, sky rendering, and procedural animation. The engine built to power the game was developed in a flexible manner, allowing the code to be reused for future projects.

Web Based Tactical Role Playing Game In Javascript, David Cilva, Paul Doyle, Stephen Hill, Rachel Judish
Computer Science and Software Engineering
The goal of this senior project was to develop a webbased game that emphasized narrative through gameplay within the context of a tactical RPG gameplay style. As the project developed, emphasis shifted from narrative to refining gameplay and making decisions within gameplay meaningful and satisfying. The project elaborates on the standard tactical RPG combat system, incorporating mechanics and ideas from various other games. This was done in order to make the play feel challenging and rewarding as well as to avoid some of the pitfalls that bog down existing games in this genre. Since work was concentrated on building the …
