Acagamics – Student Game Developer Club

Acagamics e.V. is a non-profit student game developer association at the Otto-von-Guericke-University Magdeburg. Since 2005 we want to enable interested and dedicated students to work with video games and all their facets. Our primary goals are:

to build and offer a platform for students interested in game development and industry
to offer educational courses and lectures
to organize interesting guest lectures and talks
to arrange excursions to exhibitions
to strengthen the acceptance of video games in society and science
to create new and exiting games together
to provide diversion from daily routine

We offer several courses each semester in cooperation with Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg.

Regular workshops and GameJams are organized by us. On social events like summer party or christmas party you can meet up with new and old friends.

We go to several conferences (DevCom, GermanDevDays, AMAZE) and visit game studios.
