Protocol Transcendence: One Month from Concept to App Store
The assignment was to develop an app to release on the Windows 8 app store in one month. Six students from the class took control and developed "Protocol: Transcendence." U Entertainment Arts and Engineering graduate student Travis Turner said it is a non-violent stealth game for cell phones. "The player is a janitor drone working on a government ship who must steal important government documents," he said. Turner says getting certification to be on the app store was great, especially because most games of this genre are on platforms like Xbox and PCs. The game was released at the end of 2014 and already has around 500 downloads.
