Student projects are added irregularly and in no particular order. These are projects stretching back to 2002, from students in their 1st, 2nd and 3rd year and using vastly different tech. Thus; we recommend you use the tag cloud to the right to filter the projects you’re interested in!

The player’s objective is to gather artifacts while trying to tackle the other players into obstacles or out of the track to stop them from getting any artifacts.

Is a first person 4-player co-op game. In which each player has been given a unique objective to complete within a time limit. Once this time limit is met, the players have lost. To make it extra difficult, each objective requires two people to successfully complete it so you need to go with someone that you trust. However, trust is hard to come by in Portentous because one randomly chosen player has been infected by a mysterious organism. This player is no longer acting with the best of his friends in mind, but has also been given an objective to either kill or secretly infect the other players, in effect turning them to his side. With this in mind, non-infected player will know that they cannot trust anyone, but they still have to trust someone in order to finish the objectives or kill the infected.
“Social Anxiety” is a game that tries to show it’s players what it’s like going to school suffering from social anxiety.
The game attempts to abstract and simplify the concepts and behaviors of being socially uncomfortable in a social setting in order to easily communicate what it’s like to people who might not have had any experience with social anxiety before.
The player is tasked with going through a normal school day while avoiding being exposed to other people and trying to cope with the overwhelming feelings of dread that comes with being socially anxious.
