Throughout the course, youll find an activity-led approach focused on the practical processes of making games. So, with our support youll build up a strong portfolio of games and game-like artefacts. As you progress, youll have the chance to pursue the specialist areas of the discipline that interest you most, and with cutting-edge assessments like our Game a Week, youll also build up your abilities as a games designer.
