Participated in the Global Game Jam
January 24-26, 2014, SUNY Morrisville,
NY
On January 24th-26th, STEP students participated in the Global
Game Jam at SUNY Morrisville. Global Game Jam is an international
event to provide a vehicle for professional developers, students
and hobbyist to come together and have an incredible experience
in collaboration and inventiveness. Everyone is give a central
theme and 48 hours to complete a video game or board game.
Morrisville STEP students completed all the code necessary
to finish their video game. It was a weekend with very little
sleep, frustrations, failures, and final success. These STEP
students did a remarkable job during this Global Game Jam
and are now part of a World Record for the largest video game
event ever held. The students plan to continue developing
their game and other games in the future.

STEP student, that now attends Columbia College in Chicago.)
