Jorja B, Lilly F and Matilda W of Year 8 dedicated their time and efforts to creating a video game to compete in the Australian STEM Video Game Challenge. They needed to embedÌýthe theme “Journey” and design all the sprites, tiles and backgrounds as well as the music. Team was essential, taking responsibility, meeting deadlines,Ìýand communication were key to finishing. The group made it through to the second round and received excellentÌýfeedback to support their growth and development. Coding the game was shared by all,Ìýand they unlocked some very cool ways to achieve the effects they wanted.
Here is a link to their game !
