Colette's Story

I have always been interested in technology and video games. I was even thinking of getting a career in games, so when I heard that there was an opportunity to learn how to make them, I totally took it. At camp, I learned the three core fundamentals of games: design, art, and programming, which I soon learned were all hard work. But the fun part was always well worth all the work. While most of my days were spent trying hard to figure out why my game had suddenly crashed (stupid curly brace!) most of my nights were spent Dancing DDR and rocking out to Guitar hero II. And nothing tops that awesome feeling you get at 11 o'clock at night on the last day when you have finally put the finishing touches on your game, and you realize that you have just made your very *own* video game and therefore...you rule.
