Our Learning Tracks

We've designed these programs based on what studios actually need. Each track focuses on real-world skills that matter in today's game development landscape.

Unity Development Foundation

Master C# scripting, scene management, and asset optimization. You'll work on three complete projects, from a simple 2D platformer to a multiplayer prototype. Our students often tell us this track gave them the confidence to tackle complex game systems.

12 weeks • Starts October 2025

Unreal Engine Specialization

Dive deep into Blueprint visual scripting and C++ integration. The curriculum covers lighting, materials, and performance optimization techniques used by AAA studios. We partnered with local game companies to ensure this content stays current.

16 weeks • Starts November 2025

Technical Art Pipeline

Bridge the gap between art and programming with shader development, tool creation, and pipeline automation. This track emerged from feedback we received about the industry's need for technical artists who understand both sides.

14 weeks • Starts January 2026

Game Design Systems

Learn how to create engaging mechanics, balance systems, and design for player retention. We focus on mobile and PC gaming markets that are growing rapidly in Southeast Asia. Each project includes playtesting with real users.

Learning from Industry Veterans

Our lead instructor, Marcus Chen, spent eight years at major studios before joining our team. He's shipped games that millions of players enjoy, and more importantly, he's passionate about sharing what he's learned along the way.
