Power Up!

WE’RE THE POWER UP INSTITUTE

You’ve got awesome ideas, and the determination to make them reality.

I’m here to help you develop the skills to create amazing games.

Get started with game development!

Game Design

Let’s develop your ideas about prototyping, mechanics, balancing, testing, and leadership. We can explore how game design informs level design, and how level design controls the player experience.

Game Audio

Games have two types of audio: diagetic audio, the sounds within the game; and non-diegetic audio, the soundtracks and user interface audio feedback. We’ll create new sound effects from recorded material and from scratch, and work on music composition to create awesome music.

Game Art

From concept art, to 3d modelling, to animation — game is a highly visual medium. Let’s learn the fundamentals of anatomy, form, and light, and develop existing skills to create new worlds, characters, and objects.
