Game development is a broad field deployed to a broad range of devices, such as phones, laptops, desktop computers with custom GPU hardware and consoles. One feature of development that unites all deployments is the requirement to fit all computation within the amount of time taken to display a frame. This drives the requirement for low latency programming. This course will cover much of the lower-level hardware information required to successfully develop low latency applications by showing you how to get to the metal of the machine and the GPU, a task well suited to C++ deployment. It will also cover topics such as optimisation and profiling, debugging and assembly, multithreading, file IO and some of the fundamentals of programming such as abstraction and generic programming.
