We just wrapped up, the Year 5-6 students completed Demo Day and the students presented their favourite computer game that they made this term.

Students were invited to ask the presenters questions about their game: how they built particular features, what they would do next if they had more time, whether they thought about doing things in another way.

At the end of the presentations we asked the students voted for the #1 computer game. Eight teams or individuals presented a total of 10 computer games, with two students presenting two computer games each.

Students were able to volunteer themselves to present their computer games. These are the computer games in order of their presentations.
