Game Making for Scholarship and Storytelling

June 10 – 14, 2024

(with Jeremy Andriano, Reg Beatty, Jason Boyd, and Bobby Papoutsis)

IDARE, hosted by the Centre for Digital Humanities at Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU), offers learning opportunities in digital making for artistic, scholarly, and educational purposes. These opportunities are open to the TMU community and to the public.

IDARE’s inaugural offering, part of the IDARESU, the IDARE Summer University, will be a week-long course on “Game Making for Scholarship and Storytelling.” Participants will be introduced to four open access creation platforms (Twine 2, Ink/Inky, Decker, and Bitsy), and will be able to start making their own game. Participants can choose to attend for the full week or one or more classes dedicated to a particular platform.

This workshop can be counted towards the Canadian Certificate in Digital Humanities/Certificat canadien en humanités numériques
