Game Programming Students Demo New Game
Tue, October 16, 2018
On September 27th, The School of Media Studies hosted an event in the E Building concourse in partnership with Microsoft and Relic Raiders.
The event was a live demo for Relic Raiders, a new indie game made by local Toronto developers, which will be released in late October.
Microsoft provided high-end laptops for students to play the game on. After playing the game, students were invited to provide feedback to on-site representatives. The event was a huge success, with over 400 students from all Humber faculties coming to play the game.
The event was also a major networking opportunity for Game Programming students from all years, but especially our third-year students. These students had the chance to connect with an upcoming local developer and to interact with a professional-grade Beta about to go through its final polish, as well as the opportunity to provide feedback and thoughts on how to further improve the game's design.
Overall, Microsoft was overjoyed with how the event turned out and is extremely interested in doing more of these events on an even larger scale.
