Don’t Look is a game developed by the students during their first year on the Master's degree in Video Games and Digital Interactive Media programme (Cohort 2018-2020).
In this horror game, which uses eye tracking technology, the player is a child searching for his missing dog in a dark, disused complex. He explores the environment by controlling his torch with his eyes, but there is something lurking in the shadows...
Cnam-Enjmin was delighted to see its students be recognised and win awards throughout the entire evening!
Two former students of Cnam-Enjmin worked on the game A Plague Tale, from the studio Asobo, which received no fewer than 6 prizes (Best Video Game, Visual Excellence, Best Sound Universe, Best Character, Best Game Design and Best Video Game Universe).
