Easter Sus: Camp
discover your digital career
Easter Camp
The Esports Centre at the University of Warwick is back this Easter with a brand-new holiday camp for youngsters unlike ever seen before!
Get a glimpse inside the minds and process of designing serious games with a wide selection of activities, hosts and causes all based around sustainability and environmental awareness.
Hosted in the Esports Centre at their brand-new location on central campus (FUSION @ Rootes Building) and working with various experts, each day hosts different activities all based around game development and sustainability.
If you had to design a game that was fun, engaging and informative about issues with the environment, what would your game look, feel and play like? What would you need to consider around map design? And what other games are out there that could be tackling some of these topics already?
Attend our Easter Sus: Camp to learn, play and find out!
