GameDev Camp
2019 • Organizer
GameDev Camp was a week long introductory game development course for high school students. The classes covered a variety of topic such as game design, audio, programming, and art, and mixed hands-on digital assignments with pen and paper activities. The week finalized with a game jam based on the theme “bounce”, in which over 20 students created 5 games.
It was our first time as a club organizing an event focused solely on school-age students so we were a bit worried, but the kids were great and we had lots of fun!
As one of the organizers, my responsibilities included:
- Talking with university authorities to get permission to use computer labs and to host an activity for high school students.
- Planning and designing introductory game development classes.
- Handled the logistics and budget for food and other materials
