Game Design

The New York Film Academy strives to be considered amongst the best video game design schools in the world – offering a curriculum that will stimulate you academically and prepare you to pursue your passion. Join other creative students at the New York Film Academy’s Game Design School and learn how to apply your vision and skills to be the best game designer you can be.

The heart of the New York Film Academy’s Game Design School is our Game Studio course. Unlike other top game design schools, this unique course challenges students to lead their own Game Studio with two other classmates. Throughout the course of a semester, students receive coding support and mentorship from professional game design programmers, developers, and instructors.

The game design school program’s unique approach of pairing students with professionals allows students to create their own digital game by the end of the semester. Students pursuing a game design degree will take the class multiple times throughout their tutelage at NYFA’s Game Design School – giving them the chance to make multiple games, work with a variety of different professionals and students, and build their portfolio.
