  • Tutorials on Unity3D, pathfinding, pixel art, and pitching games to publishers.
  • Lists of game conferences to help educate yourself, game design competitions to enter your games for judgement, and colleges and universities in the US and abroad offering game-related programs, from Associate's degrees to doctorates.
  • An in-depth look at the team and development process behind Octodad, the IGF 2010 winner produced by students at DePaul University.
