Information for the press
Starting on the 26th of July, and lasting until the 2nd of August, 72 talented highschool students are gathered at Aalborg University. Here they have 7 days to create a complete game - from scratch!
They are receiving lessons in 2D, 3D and programming throughout the week, as prior knowledge about Game Development is not nescessary to go to the camp.
Blogs, pictures and more:
The participants are also blogging about their game development on a daily basis.
It's all in Danish, but there are some very good pictures and screenshots of the games.
