CHONGYANG.IO

This place was initially evolved from a course game project team in UW-Madison, where we found each other having strong passion and similar interests and believes in game development.

Soon after we all graduated from Madison, based on our expanding networks, we found and invited more and more passionate people who shared similar interests with us.

In general, we are a group of enthusiastic game guys, we play games, design games, develop games, research games, daydream cool game ideas, and for me, I also teach games.

We are top students, industry elites, creative freelancers, chaddy developers, passionate artists, and game zealots. We come from interdisciplinary fields but are rallied under one flag - to create a highly interactive, inviting, and fun game experience for everyone, which includes transforming daily-life highlights to a playable experience, daydreaming novel game design concepts, experimenting and blending existing mechanics, and discovering new possibilities brought by the advancement of technology (HCI, XR, GPT, Gaze-Tracking, Computer Vision, etc.).
