    Sprint Coordinator @ Into Games | Game Designer

    Coordinating this Sprint was such an incredible experience! ๐Ÿธ Not only was it a pleasure to work with Rami, but to get to know everybody taking the course - just the absolute best. Everyone brought the most amazing talent and passion, and shared so much of their knowledge, time, and effort with others! It was honestly a privilege to watch and be a part of. I'm rooting for every single one of you as you continue on your journeys! ๐ŸŽˆ To all who want to be a part of something seriously special - I can't recommend Into Games and their courses enough. Plus, you might bump into me! โœจ

    Last week was the final week of this month's Sprints! ๐ŸŽ‰ Week 3 of Rami Ismail's 'Setting up an Indie Studio' Sprint focused on Legal Contracts, Pitch Deck Feedback, and a General Q&A to cover any topics with more detail! โœ Rami conducted an incredibly information loaded Q&A session, answering around 60 questions and sharing an invaluable pitch template. โœ Rami provided live feedback on pitch decks, playing the role of both "brutal talent scout" and "friendly sprint leader". Our Masterclass for this week was led by Rahul Gandhi, Associate at Sheridans! Rahul is a lawyer who specialises in advising indie/AA studios - he focused on speaking about contracts, in particular development and publishing agreements. This was fantastic for the us as we had a lot of questions about things to watch out for when negotiating with publishers ๐Ÿ’ผ Rami also provided us with an amazing pitch template which helped walk us through the process and what exactly we should be looking to include - keep an eye on our newsletter and Into Games Discord server ๐Ÿคซ

    MSc Information Technology Student | BSc (Hons) Human Biosciences Graduate

    Hi all! I'm a student at Bournemouth University with the Department of Computing & Informatics, Bournemouth University studying for my masters in Information Technology. I am asking for game developers, past and present, to give me around 20 minutes of their time to answer some questions on a survey about their opinions on video game accessibility and the guidelines available to them as developers. If that sounds like you, then your support and contribution would be hugely appreciated! https://lnkd.in/e8ZBs8jn
