Games Design

Course Overview

Games Design courses at Raffles will allow you to explore what is needed to create digital and traditional forms of entertainment - from RPGs to table-top games. Develop your game design portfolio with game engines like UDK and Unity. Once you are done designing your game, you can export them to popular platforms like iOS, Android, Wii, PS3 or the Xbox 360.

Your modules will help you build a substantial animation portfolio that features skills employers look out for - including web design. Master's degree students at Raffles undergo independent research to find out how to use interactive media design to benefit society.
