“AIME” Game On Workshop

This program was featured and covered on 'Kotaku Australia' as well as 'Good game'

Myself and some other junior game developers were involved in a 3 day workshop with year 9 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, designing and developing a video game concept to pitch that also conveyed education purposes within STEM (maths and science specifically).

By the end of the program, the young teams which had only met each other for the first time we're able to understand basic knowledge of game design and improved in team work and public speaking skills. By the end the most important thing was that they learned to use their creativity, come out of their shell and show confidence that they had never exhibited before. It was an engrossing, loving and for everyone involved a maturing experience to be a part of.

This was presented at Google in front of a panel of judges, also supported by ABC's 'Good Game' 'Linkedin','MODE Games' 'Optiver' and the 'Academy of Interactive Entertainment'.
