Spectrum published a news story on our program after interviewing me, one of my 2nd year students, Lyric Deatherage, and our industry partner John Meister from RunJumpDev. Lyric conducted research to design a real world PBL game design project. We lined up Lexington based game designer and animator Rafael Estrada as Lyric's client and Lyric worked with Rafa to develop animations and game assets for their collaborative game project "Final Judgement". This interview was recored on May 9th, 2025, just before our LexPlay event. Check out the news piece here. - Dr. K
LexPlay 2025 on May 10th
LexPlay was a resounding success on May 10th, 2025, and we've set ourselves up for launch with LexPlay 2026 at The HILL. More than 30 of my students rubbed elbows with and presented alongside dozens of professional game developers to share video games, animations, VR, and products they created for clients in PBL projects this year.
