Definitely an easy H1 (I got 89%), and I am someone who hardly puts any effort into anything. If you already have some background in music, this will be a piece of cake (and kinda fun too). The final assessment (60%) involves you either doing a 2,400-word analysis on a game of your choice, OR you can create original music for one of the three games provided by the lecturer. I went with the analysis because I thought that it required less effort than making original music for an intro, gameplay, win/lose stings, etc. If I am not mistaken, 25% is a logbook where you just write down what you learned or observed in games each week (not limited to lectures). The other 15% is another assessment where you have to source music for a video game(it does not have to be original music) the marking criteria is mostly how you implement it into the DAW and whether it fits the vibe of the game. Overall 10/10, if you're thinking of cramming the final assessment it's definitely doable, just give yourself about a week (that's what I did at least).
