What: Computer Science and Engineering Game Demo Night
When: Tuesday, May 6 from 6:15-8 p.m.
Where: Butler Hall on the campus of Mississippi State University

Students in the Bagley College of Engineering’s game design class will exhibit their creations during the annual Computer Science and Engineering Game Demo Night May 6. The two-hour, public event begins at 6:15 p.m. in Butler Hall.

Students developed their one-of-a-kind video and computer games during the semester–from concept to coding to graphics development. The resulting games work on a variety of gaming platforms and encompass a variety of game styles.

This year’s creations include a musical battle between an electric Viking and an evil warlord, and a genre-crossing sci-fi-fantasy game that tasks players with freeing a city from a rampaging dragon. Others games take players through a fight for freedom through levels of mini-games and allow them to explore a distant planet with a mysterious secret.
