Lefke Avrupa Üniversitesi (LAÜ) Faculty of Engineering and Faculty of Communication Sciences students made their university proud with their achievements in a competition they participated in.

Students from the Software Engineering Department of the Faculty of Engineering, Abdelrahman Mohamed Radwan Mostafa and Mohammed Khaleel Mohammad Hammoud, along with students from the Digital Game Design Department of the Faculty of Communication Sciences, Duygu İrem El and Melaniya Dmitriyenko, participated in the KALTEV Game Jam event hosted by METU Northern Cyprus Campus under the theme “Retro Arcade.” With their project titled “Time Drifter,” they won the competition.

Held between February 21- 23, the event brought together teams from various universities in Northern Cyprus, where the EUL team proudly represented their university. In the Game Jam competition, where game developers, designers, and enthusiasts come together to create innovative games, teams were challenged to design and develop a game from scratch within 48 hours. The EUL team successfully presented their project to an expert jury, securing first place at Game Jam METU KALTEV.

Sharing their thoughts on their achievement, the students stated:

“As the EUL team, we are delighted to have secured first place among 11 teams, including competitors from METU Northern Cyprus, CIU, EMU, Kyrenia University, and ARUCAD. This competition was an excellent opportunity to enhance our skills, showcase our talents, and challenge ourselves in game creation and development.
