Where players become
game designers.
Two programs. One mission โ put real game design skills in the hands of anyone curious enough to try. Schools, beginners, kids and adults. All welcome.
The programs
Two ways to learn.
One Game Lab.
Whether you're a school bringing game design into the classroom or a curious adult (or kid) who wants to build their first browser game โ there's a program here for you.
Introduction to
Game Design
A free, live-hosted 30-minute virtual session for grades 3โ5. Students discover how games are built, think like real developers, and design their own original game concept โ all in one class period.
Game Spark
Virtual Classes
Live virtual classes for curious beginners โ adults and kids welcome. Three sessions that take you from zero experience to a polished, shareable browser game with sound, a high score, and your name on it.
What's inside
Real skills.
Real results.
Both programs are built around the same principle โ students leave with something they made. Not a certificate of attendance. Something real.
๐ง Design thinking
Goal, Rules, Challenge โ the three building blocks behind every game. Students apply this framework to games they already love.
๐ฎ Real gameplay
Students play actual Gaemster games as part of the learning โ analysing them like developers, not just players.
๐ป Browser-based building
No installs. No downloads. Everything runs in a browser โ Chromebooks, Windows and Mac all work perfectly.
๐ Something to take home
School students leave with a Junior Game Designer certificate. Game Spark students leave with a shareable link to their game.
๐ Career connections
Students meet real game industry roles โ designer, developer, artist, tester โ and see a direct path from curiosity to career.
โค๏ธ Zero pressure
No grades. No wrong answers. No trick questions. Both programs are built to make everyone feel like they belong.
