My first Author Visit of the year went down at Culver City High School, where I was invited to speak to seventy-five students. Culver City High School holds a special place in my heart since their students volunteered for our first two years of SheroCon.
On this visit, I spoke to students from the architecture and game design classes, as well as several more students who were simply interested in all things Shero. I discovered that Culver City High School is the only school in LAUSD that has a brand new two-year game development program. That was awesome for me since I’m currently building a gaming division. While there, I was able to set up a table and do an on-the-spot beta test for the prototype of my upcoming mobile and PC game, “Rayven Choi: Reaper’s Run.”
After getting feedback on the game, their gaming teacher, Mr. Darien, invited me to check out their new gaming lab, which includes an old-school arcade. Before leaving, I had an opportunity to see the games they were building and find out which game they loved the most.
We definitely need MORE of this in all schools across America. Those game design students were totally geeked about gaming and were filled with pride about the work they were doing.
