We want each student of our institution to become the best in all gaming aspects

We have inculcated various aspects in our courses which include interest-free loans to all the students from various economic backgrounds to become game developers. 

We have expanded our reach to Pune and Bangalore, as well as shifted our campus to a much larger spacious campus this year in Hyderabad. Our laboratory facilities have been further updated. Currently, we are working on helping students build their games under mentor supervision, which are then marketed and published by us. The revenue generated through their games is shared by the whole team.

Lack of awareness in the general public about the opportunities in the gaming industry has been a major problem 

The main problem since our inception has been a lack of awareness in the general public about the opportunities in the gaming industry, and how a career in game development is intensely lucrative for the current generation. Many colleges offer game development courses along with other courses therefore, they do not concentrate on teaching the fundamentals of each concept which leads to students containing mediocre skillset. 


The gaming industry is evolving rapidly and will see an immense rise in the coming years

The gaming industry has evolved rapidly in the past decade and is all set to grow exponentially in the upcoming years. The employment growth rate is increasing year by year while the conventional courses are saturated presently.
