Games Created by GameU Instructors
Because we can’t let the kids have all the fun!
So how can GameU students build such great games? Because they’re learning from the folks who built the games. Our 100+ instructors aren’t just teachers – they’re professional game developers who’ve worked on titles like Star Wars: The Old Republic, League of Legends, and even GoldenEye. They know what the industry demands, what students need, and how to turn a love of gaming into real-world skills (and maybe even a killer portfolio).
Speaking of portfolios, here’s some of the games they’ve made and teach at GameU.
