OUR FIRST SPRING 🌴 BREAK INTENSIVE POPS OFF 🎉

Spring Break Game Design 👾 Lab 🥽 wrapped up 3-days of intensive hard fun 🧠🥳 with a crash course in #gamedesign for almost 50 NYC high schoolers. Students learned the basics of digital art, music and narrative with expert game designers and produced two games—a text-based interactive story and a simple Unity Technologies platformer remixed with original art, music & sound effects. (Plus, every teens’ favorite—lunch 🍕 & MetroCards for all!)
