More than a game: Don't just play... DESIGN IT!

General description

In the land of technology, the planet of internet and PC games.

One day a simple gamer discovers that just playing games is not as satisfying as it seems!

WHAT ABOUT MAKING THE GAME?

The rules are yours! The format, too! Sit in front of your PC, start coding and there is no way back!

Forget about Starcraft! World of Warcraft is dead! No one plays Pro Evolution Soccer anymore! Super Mario gave up in the end!

I'm talking to you now! You are the only chance!You can create a whole world and destroy it in a second!

Can you take the challenge?

Are you ready, NOT TO PLAY BUT MAKE THE GAME under the sun of Athens, working with Greeks and foreign students and professors, make and present your baby and explore the amazing ancient and modern city of Olympic Games?

Are you sure you can do it? Then apply!

May the 12 Gods be with you! ;)
