Title: Create a Comprehensive Game Development Roadmap for GDSC RCCIIT Website

Hi @rishicds

Issue Description

Game development is a popular area of interest for many students and developers. To help GDSC RCCIIT members get started with game development, it would be highly beneficial to create a Game Development Roadmap. This roadmap will guide members through the essential concepts, tools, and techniques needed to create games, starting from the basics and progressing to advanced skills.

Enhancement Aim

Goals of the Game Development Roadmap

1. Beginner Level:

   • Introduction to game development and popular game engines (Unity, Unreal Engine, Godot)
   • Basic programming concepts for game development (C#, C++, Python)
   • Understanding 2D vs. 3D game development
   • Simple project: Building a basic 2D game (e.g., Pong or a simple platformer)

2. Intermediate Level:

   • Working with 3D environments and assets
   • Introduction to physics and collision detection in games
   • Animations and character movements
   • Basic AI concepts for games (e.g., enemy movement and decision-making)
   • Simple project: Building a 3D game prototype with basic animations

3. Advanced Level:

   • Advanced AI (pathfinding, complex behaviors)
   • Multiplayer game development basics
   • Performance optimization for games
   • Understanding shaders and visual effects
   • Advanced project: Building a full-featured game with multiplayer functionality

Expected Outcome

1. A structured guide or README file within the repository that breaks down each topic with recommended resources, tutorials, and exercises.
2. Links to external resources (courses, documentation, video tutorials) for each level.
3. Sample projects and challenges for each level to help members practice and apply what they learn.

Changes

Suggested Implementation

1. Collaborative Development:

   • Divide the roadmap into distinct sections and allow contributors to focus on areas where they have expertise or interest.
   • Each contributor can work on a section (e.g., 2D basics, 3D modeling, AI) and submit it as a pull request.

2. Resource Curation:

   • Curate resources for each level (beginner, intermediate, advanced) from popular and free sources.
   • Include documentation on game engines like Unity, Unreal, and Godot, as well as any software commonly used in game development, such as Blender for 3D modeling.

3. Progress Tracking:

   • Use GitHub Projects or Milestones to track the progress of each section, making it easy for contributors to see the roadmap’s overall completion status.

We plan to host hackathons in our college and plan to put winning projects on there

[dev129]

Oh so what about your projects on github , won't you show those projects ?

[rishicds]

Nah we won't put our projects on there mp

[dev129]

Ohk, and what about your events , haven't you held them earlier also , cuz i see no mention of them.

Yeah we will add them ourselves after gssoc ends

[dev129]

Well I must say the website actually has gone way awesome than you could have thought.
