Software engineering/Product development: Turn-based strategy game. (team)

Title:

Programming a Turn-Based Strategy Game

Objective:

The objective of my project is to produce a fully functional turn-based strategy 
game.

Justification:

Writing a video game would require a heavy understanding of the Java programming 
language, an understanding of video games, and an understanding of the principles 
of Artificial Inteligence. Having a sample of completed work would be a huge help in 
trying to enter the video game industry.

Description:

The objective will be accomplished through study and writing of Java. Additionaly, 
graphics must be drawn for use with the game. The project will consist of the plan 
and layout of the data structure, making the required graphics for the game, writing 
the game, testing the game, and finalizing the game.

Limitations:

Most video games are made by whole teams of directors, programmers, coders, 
graphics artists, testers and more over a period of several months or year. I hope to 
work with another student so we will be limited to the work that the two of us can 
produce in a single year. This is also our first game, so we will have to learn what to 
do before we can do it.
