The University of Abertay's Dare to be Digital competition is an annual game-making event that gives student designers the opportunity to develop, build and showcase their work. Taking place at Dare to Digital's Dare ProtoPlay event, fifteen teams are selected as finalists, with a panel of industry experts selecting their top three games. The teams then become the sole nominees for the BAFTA Ones to Watch Award. Recent winners include Sophia George - part of Swallowtail's winning team for Tick Tock Toys in 2012 - who has become the V&A's first Game Designer in residence.
