Operating as a solo development studio, Ludus Pax Studios focuses on creating immersive gaming experiences. Silviu's dedication to his craft is evident in the studio's debut release, "Rise of the Village Hero," an indie RPG game that pays homage to classics in the genre.

"Rise of the Village Hero" invites players to embark on a captivating adventure, where they explore levels, complete quests, interact with NPCs, and battle formidable monsters to earn the title of the Hero of Drobroja.

Reflecting on his journey, Silviu expressed gratitude for his time at UWS, stating, "Studying Computer Games Development at WCS has laid the foundation for my career, providing me with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to start my own solo game development studio.

The College has helped me realize my dream.

Silviu was a pleasure to teach - always asking questions and participating in extracurricular esports events.

'He's a determined student, and I look forward to seeing how he progresses now that he has finished his studies."

As Silviu prepares to graduate, he offers words of encouragement to aspiring game developers, stating, "To anyone considering game development, choosing West College Scotland was the right choice for me, and it could be for you too.
