Students in Niagara College’s Game Development program were in the media spotlight for participating in the Global Game Jam, an annual event five years running at the Welland campus.
Professor and Game Development alumnus Tom Brown explains the theme which is announced at the start of the 48-hour jam in which students collaborate to produce an original game. For 2020, “repair” was the theme from which students were to draw their inspiration.
Brown says of the students, “They had to hit the ground running with only the knowledge they have and the tools we supply…It’s more of a collaboration event, a celebration.”
