HazMat Hotzone: First-Person First Responder Gaming
Gamasutra is proud to present GDCTV, a special feature showcasing streaming high-quality video content of some of the notable sessions of this year's Game Developers Conference and Serious Games Summit. For this session we have
the representatives from Carnegie Mellon University and the 44th Engine Co. of the New York Fire Department presenting their experiences on the HazMat Hotzone project in this case study entitled "HazMat Hotzone: First-Person First Responder Gaming":
"The HazMat Hotzone project based at the Entertainment Technology Center at Carnegie Melon University is one of the earliest serious game projects and was first featured at the Serious Games Summit in March 2004. Since its origin the project has taken great steps and now has several scenarios up-and-running using Unreal Tournament-based graphics and gameplay.
In this hands on case-study developers of HazMat Hotzone will discuss the development of the project to date and where they intend to take it next. This session will detail the design decisions of the game, responses to early testing, how student developers have worked successfully on the project, changes the team made in response to feedback by subject matter experts, and more."
