Big shout out to our friends from Ubisoft Australia!

The Ubisoft Workshop on UX/UI Design for Games and the Ubisoft Mock Interviews (held on June 19th and 20th respectively)
Ealier this week, the Playmakers Student Society in collaboration with the UTS Faculty of Engineering and it held a unique challenge: The Armless Samurai Gaming Competition
Armless Samurai is a game designed, developed and published by the 2023 UTS Playmakers Development Team.
