Let’s Go Marketing! Board Game
As a senior capstone project, our goal was to develop a digital version of a physical board game. The game’s purpose is to educate high school students about marketing programs featured at Ferris State University.

Our Process
When initially developing the functionality of the game, my team had limited knowledge of code - mainly basic HTML, CSS, and Javascript. If we wanted to create a dynamic game, we had to admit our limitations and seek help elsewhere. Therefore, this product was not possible without the help with a team from the Game Design program.
While this interface looks nice, my team and I were looking at this solution through the lens of web development instead of game development. If I were to redo this game, I would create an immersive experience that would resemble a first-person perspective of characters on the game board itself.
