What Our Students & Partners Say

  • Codelanu’s prototype mentoring helped me turn a vague idea into a fully playable mobile demo in just a few weeks. The mentors were not only technically sharp but also deeply encouraging and honest in their feedback. I appreciated how they focused on helping me define mechanics that actually felt fun. Their guidance around publishing strategy gave me the confidence to move forward on my own. I'm now preparing for soft launch thanks to their support.

    Indie Developer

  • Joining one of Codelanu’s online game jams was the first time I ever built something in a team setting. Even though I had no prior experience, the structure was welcoming and accessible. I learned about level pacing, UI layout, and basic event triggers—all in one weekend. The feedback sessions were incredibly constructive. Best of all, I left with a working prototype and new collaborators I still talk to today.

  • As a small creative studio, we were looking for a publishing partner that respected our vision while providing clear, data-driven support. Codelanu exceeded expectations. They helped us refine our tutorial flow, tested monetization models, and even offered custom tooling for our build pipeline. Their team is fast, responsive, and fully invested in the games they back. It’s rare to find a partnership that feels this aligned.

  • The Narrative Game Design course was everything I hoped for. It combined structured theory with practical tool walkthroughs, and the instructors gave individual feedback on each project. I loved experimenting with Ink and branching logic, and I now feel ready to pitch my own interactive fiction concept. The environment felt collaborative, not competitive. I highly recommend this for writers wanting to break into games.
