This is not a game—this is Pax East. At the Boston Expo and Convention Center, you’re welcomed into multiple worlds of fantasy and adventure: “A celebration of gaming and gaming culture,” as the convention describes itself.
Deidre Morgan ‘25, Jake Anderson, '25, Tyler Ashbrook ‘25, and the other students networking here don’t want to buy tickets to enter this world. They want to build it. The Lesley table presented two games created by students. “Getting into PAX is taking all that artistic excitement and starting to narrow it down and hone in on task,” says Deidre Morgan.
She’s not here to play. She’s here to exhibit her work. "We want to get a nice, crisp demo to bring to PAX so we can see how people really engage with it. I got to be in on the ground floor, and see how that game was going to look, along with the team.”
