A group of enterprising students from the Networking and Engineering programs at the Seneca Highlands CTC experienced a thrilling hands-on opportunity today, beta testing a brand-new, in-development game from Gwoop. The experience kicked off with excitement and anticipation as students logged in to explore the game’s early version, collecting data and feedback crucial to its future success.

“This is the type of real-world experience we always look for,” said Mr. Brent Bryant, the Networking instructor. “Students aren’t just learning from class materials; they’re actively shaping an innovative product that could be used by thousands of players.” During the test, students navigated various levels, analyzing everything from the stability of the game’s servers to the fluidity of its controls.

Feedback from the students will directly inform software patches, gameplay tweaks, and potential additions to the final version. 

With this feedback, both Gwoop and the students gain something invaluable—practical skill-building on the cutting edge of technology, and a chance to leave a lasting mark on a product that may soon launch.
