Arcades and theme park games. The arcades are the first big game project, and thus games in this category are primarily built and developed by first year students. We recommend you use the tag cloud to the right to filter the student work.

Society of Mages

Have you ever wanted to push out someone in your high school class through the window of a wizard tower? At the Society of Mages, the teacher leaves the room and hell breaks loose. This is a 4-player versus where you build your own way on the go. Your goal is to push out your class mates from the tower as many times as possible before the teacher gets back.
