    "comment": "The Game Design course is an intro to the game development field. The class work is project based so fellow classmates change the dynamics of the \"work\" more than Kurt's presentations. Take this course if you want to learn how games can be used as a teaching tool, network with computer science folks, and try making games that don't always work.",
