Real Numbers from Real Students
We've been teaching Unreal Engine for mobile game development since 2021. Here's what actually happens when people join our programs—not promises, just data from students who've walked this path.
How Learning Actually Unfolds
Most people think learning game development is linear. It's not. Here's what the journey looks like based on tracking student progress through our 2024 cohorts.
Months 1-3: Foundation Building
This is where about 22% of students drop out—not because the content is too hard, but because life gets in the way. The ones who stick around spend roughly 8-12 hours weekly. They're not building games yet, they're learning how Unreal thinks.
Months 4-8: The Messy Middle
Here's where it gets interesting. Students hit their first real roadblocks—optimization issues, performance problems on mobile devices. Around 15% more leave during this phase. But the ones who push through? They start building something that actually looks like a game.
