Students support MyRollercoaster.org.au

Recently PhD Candidates Alexander Muscat and Will Owen presented their new game Deep Rift at the launch of Wangaratta's new youth support website, My Rollercoaster.org.au.

Located three hours North-East of Melbourne, local Wangaratta organisations, young people and service providers were brought together by UnitingCare Goulburn North-East, to co-design a new approach to counselling. By looking at how young people use personal networks and social media, as well as research from the Young & Well Cooperative Research Centre, an online resource was developed to help young people who may be dealing with grief or loss.

To support the initiative, Alex and Will presented their newly developed Virtual Reality horror game Deep Rift.
