Describe and map out the most common control scheme for the type of game you want to make. Does this control scheme work particularly well for your game? Why/why not?

What will be an ideal response?

Students should come up with original game concepts. After determining the hardware platform and genre, students should describe and map out the most common control scheme for the type of game they are creating. Common general control schemes discussed in this chapter include keyboard/mouse, controller, and touchscreen – which are associated with computer, console, and mobile platforms, respectively. Additional control schemes that aren’t platform specific include audio feedback, navigation.
