Learn Game Development That Actually Works
We teach JavaScript, HTML5, and real game programming skills. No fluff, no empty promises — just the coding knowledge you need to build engaging social casino games.

Hands-On Coding Practice
Every day you'll write actual game code. We focus on JavaScript ES6+, Canvas API, and modern web technologies that power today's browser games. By week 6, you'll have built three playable prototypes.
Real Game Architecture
Learn how professional games handle state management, rendering loops, and player input. We'll dissect popular slot mechanics and show you the math behind bonus features and RNG systems.
Industry-Standard Tools
Master the same development environment used by gaming studios. We cover Git workflows, debugging techniques, performance optimization, and testing frameworks that matter in professional game development.
Meet Your Instructors
Our team consists of developers who've shipped games you've actually played. They know what works and what doesn't in real production environments.
Thorben Nylander
Senior Game Developer
Former technical lead at Nordic gaming studios with 8 years building slot games. Thorben specializes in performance optimization and has contributed to games with over 50 million players.
Kalindi Okafor
JavaScript Specialist
Full-stack developer who transitioned into game development 6 years ago. She teaches our advanced JavaScript modules and helps students understand complex game state management patterns.
What You'll Actually Learn
12 weeks of focused programming instruction. Each module builds on the previous one, so you develop real competency instead of surface-level knowledge.
JavaScript Fundamentals
Master ES6+ syntax, asynchronous programming, and DOM manipulation. Build your first interactive card game to understand event handling and game loops.
Canvas & Animation
Learn HTML5 Canvas API for graphics rendering. Create smooth animations, sprite handling, and basic physics for reel spinning mechanics.
Game State Management
Understand how games track player progress, handle wins/losses, and manage complex state transitions. Build a functional slot machine prototype.
Audio & Effects
Add sound effects, background music, and visual feedback systems. Learn Web Audio API and particle effects for engaging player experiences.
Performance & Optimization
Debug performance bottlenecks, optimize rendering loops, and prepare games for different devices. Learn profiling tools and memory management.
Portfolio Project
Complete a full game from concept to deployment. Apply everything you've learned while building something you can actually show to potential employers or collaborators.
Ready to Start Coding?
Our next 12-week program begins September 23, 2025. We keep cohorts small — just 20 students — so you get individual attention when you need help with challenging concepts.
You'll need a computer and about 15 hours per week for coursework and projects. We provide all software and development tools.
