My Senior design project in my last year as an undergraduate student at North Carolina State University is to build a video game on a Windows 8 touch-enabled table device for Ipreo. This video game is a fun application to interact with where visitors to Ipreo’s office can sit and entertain themselves as they wait in the lobby – creating a positive impression of the experience. This game is casual in nature because the visitors that will be playing it will only be in the lobby for 1 to 10 minutes max.

Our game represents the process of initial public offerings. In our game each player of the game is a book builder attempting to gather as many investors as possible while maintaining a diverse portfolio in order to optimize the capital raised as well as the stability of the holdings.
