Reviews
GameDev course is divided under 3 streams - Design, Art, Tech Art courses are fairly well done with decent application of hard skills for 3d creation and animation and the other myriad of art-based specializations. Can't say for Tech, I've never had any classes under that stream. Now, if youre still reading this, I want you to contemplate everything Im about to say. Do. Not. Take. Game Design. Several major lecturers under this course are absolutely incapable of nuanced creative discussion, provide vague, useless "Master Oogway" directions and advice. The design stream also currently has a batch of poster-boy students whereby the lecturers will almost too obviously be lenient towards them. The current standing batch of seniors continually exhibit a pattern of behavior of abusing their seniority and familiarity with the lecturers with administrative power and putting pressure on juniors that might have so much has mildly angered them, regardless if they actually did something wrong. Majority of the students here are incredibly incompetent, childish for young adults, petty, and contribute to toxic work culture if they were to graduate into the industry.
