CCNY STEM Institute Arcade Jam

The Arcade Jam was an in-person game jam focused on providing students with a 2D competitive base game in Unity, where they worked within the theme of "Mythology." The winning projects will be displayed on the STEM Institute arcade machine, featured at all future STEM events.
