Join us as we follow the stories of those taking part in one of the toughest student games development competitions in the UK, and get a glimpse behind the scenes at what it takes to get their dream job in the games industry.

In episode 2 we follow three more students as they develop their own game and face a professional interview to discover if they have the skills, passion and ambition to make them stand out as a game dev star. This week we meet Tamara “Tami” Tanasescu of Edinburgh’s Herriot-Watt University, Sam Cipolat from the University of Hull and Robin Van Nunen of NHTV.
