Virtual Exhibition May 5th, 2021 https://www.uwstout.ehttps://www.uwstout.edu/academics/colleges -schools/school-art-design/sgx20 du/academics/colleges- 1 schools/school-art- The Stout Game Expo (SGX) is Western Wisconsin’s premier exhibition for student-created work in game design and development. At the end of every semester, SGX draws crowds of more than 500 students, parents, and professionals in the field, providing our students the opportunity to professionally exhibit their work and network. Like last Fall, the COVID- 19 pandemic has caused us to host an entirely virtual SGX. Projects are available for viewing and playing through your web browser. Now that it has reached the spring, the senior games are fully complete. As you browse the SGX website or click game titles in this digital program, we hope you will see the talent, work, and dedication of our students. If you have a few words of encouragement for our students, please feel free to like, comment, or share from our Facebook or Twitter pages.
