I'd like to thank and recognize the two organization that made EscapeIF possible:
Wilfrid Laurier University
Wilfrid Laurier University
Wilfrid Laurier University, with headquarters in Waterloo, Ontario, provided a sabbatical to Dr. Scott Nicholson for the 2021-2022 academic year, which provided him the time to create EscapeIF. Dr. Nicholson is part of the Game Design and Development program on the campus in Brantford, Ontario and runs the BGNlab, where organizations can hire teams of game design students to create prosocial and educational games.
