Workshop DescriptionWorkshop Name: 12-Week Game Coding Workshop
The Intensive Game Coding Workshop meets Monday through Friday, from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. for 12 weeks. Students studying in NYFA’s Game Design School learn from a faculty of working, expert game industry programmers who mentor each student in a hands-on and immersive studio environment.
The workshop focuses on learning the Unity platform, Unreal Engine, and C# scripting language. These technologies are:
- The most powerful and accessible game engine available
- Multi-platform, allowing students to build and easily tailor their game to different platforms, deploying at a click for major console, mobile, and desktop platforms
- Ubiquitous in the game industry

As the Game Coding Workshop is designed to train students to code games, each student builds a portfolio and receive one-on-one mentoring over the course of the twelve weeks. To learn more about the projects that game design students complete, visit our projects page.
