The Worldbuilder Symposium 2025 took place at CEPT University, bringing together students, educators, and industry practitioners to explore video games, immersive storytelling, and worldbuilding through game engines.
The 3‑day event included hands-on workshops on game-making, a symposium with leading voices from India’s game design ecosystem, and a Game Jam, where teams came together to imagine, design, and build playful worlds in real time. Industry experts shared their knowledge for conceptualising game worlds. Insightful panel discussions from CEPT and NID faculty explored the intersection of design education and game development. The event concluded with an intensive Game Jam, during which 40 participants formed teams to tackle social challenges through rapid game design.
Worldbuilder India is a series of symposiums curated by Antariksha Studio & Green Rain Studios and powered by Epic Games. It is India’s first platform dedicated to immersive storytelling using game engines. CEPT hosted Ahmedabad’s edition of the travelling symposium as an academic partner.
