Blog 7: Level Up Showcase

Level Up Showcase



This year was the 3rd annual Level Up Showcase event, and my group was able to attend as a participants. My group members and I went to the Level Up Showcase to show our level editor to the public and also a couple of company representatives.This was my first time attending such a life-experience event. There were many other universities and colleges that also attended this event such as:

and many more.

There were many groups showing their game they created to the public, and I was surprised by the amount of people that came to visit.

Though the event was a success, there were problems with the organization prior to the opening of the event. We were told there were going to be high-school students showing around noon, but none of them showed up. It took hours for the booths to be set-up and the free pizza lunch was delayed by 2-3 hours. I was also disappointed on how some of the groups using the Unity, CryEngine, and UDK had very little content in them despite having a good engine.

Overall I had a great time at the convention with my group members and other groups from UOIT GameDev.
