The international project "Poland in Pixels" has launched!

Summer Game Camp in PJAIT? Why not!

Over the next 4 weeks of summer vacation, students from Northeastern University Boston and the Polish-Japanese Academy of Computer Technology will work on 4 independent games - Silesia, Oil-City, Breaking Waza, Rusalka. All as part of the "Dialogue of Civilizations: Poland in Pixels" project, which officially began yesterday!

The games the students are working on touch on the theme of Polish culture and identity, and once completed, they will be presented at GamesCom 2024 in Germany, the largest game fair in the world!  

At PJAIT , we know how important it is to constantly expand our horizons, so our students are often involved in international initiatives. We want the Academy to be a place for the exchange of ideas, experiences and mutual learning. This time, the result of this cross-cultural collaboration is games! 

Benjamin Hanussek and Chris Barney, along with seven GameDev professionals, are overseeing the course of the project substantively and artistically. Support throughout the process is offered by specialists from 11 bit studios, which is a great honor and distinction for our students. Mentors also include PJAIT alumna Katsiaryna Harelik! 

We can't wait to see the results of this exciting collaboration! We will certainly share them here. We thank everyone involved in the project and look forward to the creation of the games. 

The event was initiated by the PJAIT Game Lab.
