Collaborations

We host collaborations within the NUS GDG to get students involved in making games. Members may choose to join either or both of the following pathways depending on skill level.

Beginner
Level 1 Games

Level 1 Games equipts new game developers with the tools and skills to build basic games. They are a great way to get started with game development, working with your randomly assigned teammates to build your first game. An exco will be attached to each team to guide you through the project.

Advanced
Project Dev

Project Dev is a more advanced game development project that is largely independent. It allows the more experienced devs to work together and create their own games. An exco member will be attached to each group to provide tips and field queries as needed.
