Sangmyung University Introduces Website Using Games Developed by Students

Undergraduate Student in SW Convergence Department's Game Major Develops Game Themselves

[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] Sangmyung University unveiled a new intro themed around ‘games’ on its university homepage on the 18th.

The games introduced this time are three types planned, designed, and developed by teams of undergraduate students majoring in Game in the Department of Software Convergence. They will be sequentially revealed through the homepage intro.

The first game is ‘Sumungi’s School Tour,’ where Sangmyung University’s mascot Sumungi introduces the university campus. By accessing the game through the intro page, users can experience the university in advance together with the mascot.

The game consists of three stages: exploring major facilities of the Seoul and Cheonan campuses with Sumungi while completing missions, solving university-related puzzles, and collecting credits. Upon completing all stages, participants receive a certificate issued in Sumungi’s name and can also win prizes through a lottery.

Last November, Sangmyung University featured game characters dressed in medieval costumes representing the president and deans of colleges on the homepage front page. Clicking the characters allowed users to receive guidance on university-related inquiries via email.

Sangmyung University stated, "We plan to continue our efforts through various content and methods to facilitate ongoing communication between the university and the new generation."
