Third-year applied computing students have been learning to write computer games to a professional level.
"The standard of games created is exceptional," said Dr Karen Petrie of the university's school of computing. "The students have done a really fantastic job, and some are of a standard where they could be released as indie games today.
"These students have a big future ahead of them and they can only improve with the feedback they will receive from professionals from the games industry," she added.
