Bit Project will soon be hosting a Gameathon!
Bit Project is a student-run organization at UC Davis that is dedicated to developing open-source technical education and building a network of students who can collaborate to make technical education more accessible to all. We work with leading companies like MongoDB, Twitter, and Postman to develop curriculum on a broad range of topics such as Web Development, Data Structures and Algorithms, Machine Learning, and Blockchain, to work towards a future of equitable technical education.
At Gameathon, you’ll get to learn directly from industry professionals, AND you can win some great prizes! Gameathon is a two-week workshop series, so you’ll have the opportunity to familiarize yourself with the industry’s most popular game development engines.
Week one will largely be focused on Unity and Gamemaker, and our workshops will cover both the basics and an introduction to more advanced techniques. Then, week two will be dedicated to development. You’ll be able to connect with fellow developers, brainstorming together and helping each other as you use everything you’ve learned to make your very own game! No prior experience is required and everyone is welcome — learn more about it at http://gameathon.bitproject.org/!
