Matt Harvey, one of the students who worked on Level Squared said, “We’re totally honoured to have been nominated at such a huge event, and still a bit lost for words with the outcome. Like Steve said, some of our heroes were judging the student games section and it’s incredible to think they not only played our game, but voted for it to receive the award!”
