As a game enthusiast, Warren is fascinated about using artificial intelligence in gaming concepts. One of the challenges he faced was to overcome any doubts he had about developing and using his own graphic images.

University Acceptance

★ UC Irvine Computer Science & Game Design
★ Penn State University


What challenges did he face?

  • He needed to learn more about programming tools and this entailed a steep learning curve for him.
  • He had to gain more confidence in making and using his own graphics for game development.


Matched professor:

He is a Computer Science Research Assistant Professor at Brown University and an information and computer science project director, who has won several scientific awards.


How did our program help him?

  • He learned about the HTML5 stack and how to use it to make video games that can be readily distributed across any HTML5-compliant web browser.
  • The program’s first objective was to focus on JavaScript and JavaScript programming constructs integration, notably variables, objects, event handlers, functions, the frame loop, and data collecting syntax (mainly arrays). After these had been achieved, the secondary objective was for the student to explore game music, animation, and artificial intelligence integration.
