Learn how to brainstorm and generate ideas collaboratively while making a tiny game!

Annalise Valastro from the Games and Animation Department will be taking you through how to prototype a game with some paper, pens and some friends! Here are some of the things you’ll come away with:

How to break down a brief and how to stick to it
How to brainstorm ideas with a group
Knowing how to take a tiny project from start to finish
And you’ll have a tiny game by the end of it!

You won’t need to bring anything to this workshop, other than yourself and a friend or two!
