[CSENews] Please join us for a game-building event with Microsoft on Sat 11/23!

[Teresa Isela VanderSloot]

Ever dream of building the next big game?

Create your first Windows 8 game using Scirra's Construct 2 - a powerful 
game-creation tool. Games created with Construct 2 can be exported as 
Windows Store apps for Windows 8, Windows Phone apps, Android apps, iOS 
apps, and more.  Build your resume with game development and 
app-publishing experience. Publish your game in the new Windows Store, 
and become rich and famous. Above all, at this event *you will learn a 
simple way to build amazing games*.

Join us to learn about the amazing opportunity of Windows 8 and the 
Windows Store. Next, we will take a look at Scirra's Construct 2 -- a 
game creator for Windows which empowers coders AND non-coders to create 
amazing and addictive games, including shooters, platform games (like 
Super Mario Brothers), puzzles, games using a physics engine, driving 
games, turret defense games, catapult games (like Angry Birds), and 
more!  We will walk you through creating a game using Scirra's Construct 
2. Then, we will unleash you to create amazing games and submit them to 
the Windows Store!

The event will be held on Sat 11/23 from 9am-5pm at:
