Program Overview
Game programmers are the technical problem solvers of the game industry. They architect, plan, interface, write, debug, and optimize the code that makes all of game development possible. Programmers are enablers who love making tools for designers and artists.
Students pursuing a Game Programming degree at the Academy’s School of Game Development learn to build the engine that powers everything in games! From the editor used to put the game together, to the build system that generates the executable, to the scripting integration that enables designers – it’s all made by programmers. You’ll design and create the technology that powers a game for years and years.
