Academic integrity is fundamental of learning, teaching and researching at University that allow
student to easily share their respective ideas with staff as well as student. It contributes in building trust
and good relationship between the individual as they are able to effectively share information with each
other. There are five pillars of academic integrity such as honesty, trust, fairness, respect and
responsibilities that has to be followed by the student while learning at university to grow and enhance
its existing skills and capabilities. Through abiding to all the pillars of academic integrity the student
can achieve growth in personal as well as professional career. Such as by honestly sharing all the
information to the other student related to any thing so that all of them can easily learn. Furthermore, it
lead in developing respect and sense of responsibilities among the student in university I.,e they respect

interpersonal skills. Such as:
Communication skills: In the game, communication skills
has been developed as I have to communicate with other

game design is decision making skills in which I have take
decision related to task, the way game will be played and
responsibilities of each key individual in the game designing.
Innovative and creative skills: The last skills that is
innovative and creative that is developed during game design
because I have make use of innovative and creative idea to
design the game so that student can learn and have fun (Pratt,
2021).
CONCLUSION
From the above presentation it can be
concluded that game design is process
of designing the game in order to teach
