The studies in the Department of Software Engineering of the KTU Faculty of Informatics attract the best informatics specialists from entire Lithuania; therefore, even during the first-year studies it is possible to find many like-minded colleagues and contribute to various projects organised in the faculty with them or participate in the international competitions. Namely these contacts, acquired knowledge, collected practical experience, and support of the faculty encouraged me and my colleagues to start the game creation company already during the years of my studies.
