Founded in 2008, Makers of Entertaining Games Association is the premiere organization at the University of Southern California concerning all aspects of game development. MEGA gives those who have a pre-disposition for making games a place to help their ideas come to fruition and their knowledge about game design and development to expand. We are an organization that not only plays, makes, and discusses game development, but also helps teach and promote game development theory and practice.
ConstitutionWhen do we meet?
MEGA meets every Friday at 5pm in SCA 214. What are we doing this fall?
MEGA is holding a panel of upperclassmen students from the different games programs at USC. This will be an excellent opportunity for freshmen to learn about what they are getting into. We will follow this up with contest, tournaments, and guest speakers, so stay tuned.
How do I join MEGA?Start by joining the Facebook group. That is the primary way we keep our members up to date on what we are doing. Then register for our talent Database. This will help us get you connected with other designers, programmers, artists, sound designers, etc. That way you can make some awesome games like the guys in the picture below did at last semesters Global Game Jam.
This is one of our MEGA teams brainstorming at the Global Game Jam '09. Find out more about the worldwide 48 hour competition and PLAY THE GAMES WE MADE HERE! |
