Ryan Thompson – Semiotic Audio in Competitive eSports Video Games
Ryan has created an in-depth visual and audio presentation that investigates how sound effects can affect gameplay. From healing wind chimes to Sona’s strings-based attacks, learn the diverse sound families of League of Legends and how they impact player performance.
Charles McGregor – Glitch in the System
This 2D shooter not only has a great name, but also action-packed gameplay and haunting techno tunes. Play as a mysterious agent who, after finding some dangerous intel, must fight his way out of an enemy-filled military base. Check out his game here.
Charles McGregor – Fingeance
This quirky shooter game tells the tale of a disgruntled fish who can’t breathe under water. Armed with a torpedo-launcher and a grudge, now is the time for him to seek vengeance… or should we say, Fingeance!
Guangcong “Cheny” Luo – Pokèmon Showdown
Engage in Pokèmon battles at the fair with Cheny’s awesomely addictive battle simulator. Settle once and for all which of you and your friends is the true PokèMaster! Check out the project website here.
