English transcript translation
Translated from the Hindi/Hinglish speech. The description reflects the creator's introduction; current programme pages provide the course details.
We have been playing big games such as FIFA, Star Wars, Mafia and Gears of War for years. What if you could learn from people who worked on those games? This is not just a hypothetical situation.
iIDEA has launched in India: a game design institute run by veterans of the AAA and mobile gaming industry, people who have actually made and shipped games. These are international instructors, by the way.
This is not your typical college where you spend four years in a classroom in front of a blackboard, with professors coming in, teaching theory and leaving. Here, you will start working on projects from the first year, gain industry exposure and build your own portfolio. Their focus is on making you workforce ready.
A career is not limited to becoming a game designer. There is freelancing, indie game development, content creation, esports, and making custom mods for games such as Roblox and Minecraft. iIDEA will prepare you for all of this.
