[IMG]http://www.gamepolitics.com/files/blogimages/ctg.jpg[/IMG]As part of its Changing the Game initiative, Chip-maker AMD has launched a website intended to allow teenagers create and share their own videogames.
Built by the Parsons School of Design’s [URL=http://petlab.parsons.edu/]PETLab[/URL], courtesy of a $77,000 grant from the [URL=http://www.amd.com/us-en/0,,3715_14217_15653,00.html]AMD Foundation[/URL], [URL=http://www.activategames.org/]Activategames.org[/URL] features tutorials for making games, example games for users to play, and will feature a gallery of user-generated games. The site utilizes the publicly available [URL=http://www.yoyogames.com/gamemaker/]Game Maker [/URL]software to assist users in creating games.
When signing up with the site, users will be posed a series of challenges, which will correspond “with a current socially-conscious theme” and “may link to special global and social events.”
