What You'll Actually Build

Forget theory-heavy courses. We start with Unity on day three and you're shipping your first playable by week two.

Most of our students come in knowing basically nothing about game dev. That's fine. What matters is you're willing to struggle through some confusing moments and keep building anyway.

Students collaborating on game design project using digital tools

Core Mechanics

Movement systems, input handling, collision detection. The stuff that makes games feel good to play.

Level Design Basics

Creating spaces that guide players without tutorial text. Pacing, difficulty curves, visual language.

Mobile Optimization

Touch controls, performance on older devices, battery considerations. Making games that actually run well.

Monetization Reality

IAP integration, ad placement that doesn't kill retention. The business side nobody talks about.

UI That Works

Responsive interfaces, visual feedback, onboarding flows. Design patterns mobile players expect.

Portfolio Polish

Taking rough prototypes and making them presentable. Documentation, video captures, explaining design choices.

Who's Teaching This

Our instructors aren't just educators — they've shipped actual games that people downloaded and played. Some of those games even made money.

Program Details

Format

Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 18:00 to 21:00, plus Saturday workshops every other week.

We know most people can't quit their job to learn game dev. That's why this runs part-time over 18 weeks instead of an intense full-time sprint.

Location

Stegne 21c, Ljubljana — our studio space with workstations set up for Unity development.

Remote attendance available for evening sessions if you're outside Ljubljana. Saturday workshops work better in person though.

Prerequisites

Basic computer skills. Willingness to Google error messages. That's really it.

You don't need programming experience, but it helps. We teach enough C# to get functional game scripts working.
