Alex Camm, Talent Acquisition @ Studio Gobo
“TGA’s project-based approach gives students a realistic, hands-on experience that genuinely prepares them for professional game development.”
What makes TGA different
The Game Assembly is unique because of our industry-first approach. Everything we do is designed in partnership with game studios to ensure our students graduate ready to work in the real world. Approximately 10% of Sweden’s games industry professionals are TGA alumni, and our graduates are in demand across Europe, with many UK studios already hiring directly from us.
Voices from the Industry
Marina Surdu, Global Employer Brand Manager @ IO Interactive
“TGA interns are the industry’s future rockstars—we’ve hired and promoted many at IOI. They’re skilled, specialized, and exactly the kind of talent we’re keen to invest in.”
Stephen Hey, Head of Publishing & Partnerships @ Radical Forge
“In an industry that moves as fast as games, old education models often do not fit the purpose. TGA’s approach means that students are immersed in pragmatic and immediately applicable work practices and processes from day one.”
Charlotte Pook, Talent Acquisition Manager @ Electric Square
“Electric Square partners with TGA to support industry-led teaching that prepares students for real-world game development.”
Craig Pearn, Talent Acquisition Director @ Wushu Studios
“We choose to collaborate with TGA because their students are trained in
a studio-style environment, using current industry tools and guided by lecturers with hands-on experience. It’s a proven foundation for future game developers.”
Game Development Courses
At TGA, students don’t just study games — they make games.
Our team-based, project-driven model puts collaboration, creativity, and problem-solving at the centre of every programme. From day one, students are immersed in a professional studio environment, building both their skills and their future careers.
Our innovative study model blends agile workflows, cross-disciplinary teamwork, and hands-on production to mirror the way modern studios operate. Students at TGA work together across disciplines — programmers, designers, and artists.
