GBAn incredible 6-week course on Game Writing You'd be surprised in what you can learn in 6 weeks from an instructor's lessons as well as class assignments in which feedback is given. I recently took the Game Writing Course with Adam Dolin where we covered and honed in on topics relevant to game writing in the industry. The course is well-paced and the resources given are quite plentiful both during the lesson and on the slides. The assignments were challenging if you were new to a particular concept (ie screenwriting) but not only was there value in the exercise, there was great value in getting feedback from professionals. (Shoutout to the incredible writer & TA for this class Alex Blum who was both encouraging and constructive in his feedback!) Also, while getting a 1:1 chance to meet with an instructor was incredbile, it was such a hard choice to pick and I know that plenty of students wished to meet with both Adam and Alex! One last thing, depending on your classmates' schedules and openness, this class will unlock an incredible community of writers that are open to collaboration, feedback, and workshopping/brainstorming together! Overall, this course was incredible and if there was a more advanced or even more focused class on game writing (character building or worldbuilding as a topic etc.), I would sign up in a heartbeat!

GBUX/UI for Gaming - 7 Week Course I joined a UX/UI course for gaming that was led by Ivy Sang. I went into it with very basic visual design knowledge, a website development background, and a big passion for video games. My goal taking this course was to gain the confidence to be able to switch careers. This course definitely met my expectations, I really enjoyed it and thought every class was informative, well laid out and very insightful. I feel like I learned a lot and am even feeling confident enough to tackle self-paced courses to hone my skills even further, now. Our program manager, Lynn Thompson, was super helpful and supportive throughout the entire process. The course felt seamless, clear and enjoyable.

DEPaid but did not receive any accessdata Paid but did not receive any accessdata Before that it was not able to just book - they want you to talk to a salesperson. I rejected and luckily they send the link. I do not have accessdata by now, even two days later.

GBNot to be dramatic, but this class changed my life It was such an amazing experience taking the Game Writing course with Adam Dolin. I want to also give a shout out to Sabina, Alex Blum, and all my peers who have helped make this such an amazing community. I learned so much from this course, and it has helped inspire me to pursue goals that I figured would never even be possible for me. I could go on and on and on while getting increasingly more sappy, so I’ll just say: thanks for everything.

GBEveryone at the course is not only… Everyone at the course is not only really responsive but very fun to talk to. It made the space feel very open and for the first time in a long time I was comfortable sharing a lot of ideas. If there was a possibility of an advanced game writing course being added in the future, I would without hesitation apply for it.
