The best of luck to our UCLan BA and MA Games Design graduate, 

Simon Ashcroft

Simon is a finalist for the 'Student Hero' Award. Over the year Simon has worked on numerous group projects as both a team member and lead. He has engaged many other students to take part in collaborative projects and has rallied those who are confident and also those who need some support and encouragement. His enthusiasm and passion for games has fostered gatherings of students to work and play and design together in a friendly creative spirit. Most recently he co-organised and participated in the Global Game Jam 2020 where he was the lead of the team that created the game 'Karting ways' which attracted interest from various sources.

Congratulations to all finalists, and looking forward to the announcements from September 15th!
