2020 Challenge cancelled

The 2020 Australian STEM Video Game Challenge has been cancelled in response to the impact of COVID-19.

For those of you already involved in creating projects we encourage you to keep going and finish what you have started – the Australian STEM Video Game Challenge is about learning, challenging yourselves and creating something amazing!

We will keep the current theme for next year, so any work you do this year is not lost and can be used in 2021.

The Australian STEM Video Game Challenge team wish you a happy and healthy year ahead. We will see you again in 2021.
