GameDev Challenge game presentations this Friday

Posted by Neville Attard

The students will be presenting their 4 games to the public this Friday at St.Martin's Institute of IT, in room 022 at 6pm. We will be announcing the winner of this competition. Seating is on a first-come-first served basis.

The four games listed in the poster have primarily been made for the national Gamezing competition. St.Martin's Institute of I.T. will be choosing the best game from within St.Martin's students.

The four teams are:

  • Barbaganni Game Studio with Battle on the Horizon where you need to take control of his ship and battle it out at sea, while buying and selling goods between ports.
  • CVI Studio with Bucket Ball where the aim of the each handcrafted level is to guide ball to the buckets by placing objects on the screen which will physically effect the ball's trajectory.
  • Kinetic have done Time Citizen, a challenging platform game whose story is about the player having to save Malta from an evil scientist.
  • Zarox with their Nanoid game where you need to save a girl from being killed from very dangerous viruses and bacteria

The public is also invited to play the games between 3:30pm and 5:30pm.
