Unfortunately, we don’t provide feedback on individual portfolios. This is because, as the evaluators of the submitted material, we aim to have as little influence on its content as possible. The best advice we can offer is to explore, showcase your work, and seek feedback. While it’s great to share your work with friends or family, it’s also a good idea to present it to others who can provide constructive feedback, such as through one of the many online forums or communities.

Additionally, take a look at what others are sharing! How does your work compare to what’s already out there? What unique value can you bring?

Our events are for those interested in studying game development at TGA UK, including future students and their parents.
