GBThis is what colleges should be focusing on, first person teaching. This may be the best good faith education initiative I have seen. They will call you on a SATURDAY if you request it. Great customer service and great tech Shout out to the dude “Lev the Legend” making calls on a national holiday

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!

GBI completed the Game Writer course with Adam Dolin Adam was a fantastic instructor. He was knowledgeable about the subject matter, but also humble in his teaching, making him easy to connect with and learn from. The ELVTR staff were excellent and always there when we needed them.

GBGame Writing with Adrian Ropp Easily one of the best classes I’ve ever taken. Adrian and his TAs were amazing. The real-world insights knowledge gained were well worth meeting twice a week. I loved the assignments and the lectures… the special guests were 🤌🏿🤌🏿🤌🏿 outstanding. Our ELVTR class manager, Lynn, was attentive and helpful. Would definitely take another class by ELVTR, especially if Adrian was teaching it.

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.
