Have you ever wanted to learn game design or game development? Want to learn to make your own games, web applications, Windows applications, or just get some general engineering skills? I work with Scratch, Basic, Gamemaker, C++, C#, Javascript, Unity, and Unreal. Whether you're a kid, teen, young professional, or an adult looking for a fresh start, I can help. We can do absolute beginners, advanced, or wherever you're comfortable. We can even walk through making an entire, small game from start to finish. When you're ready, I can even give you tips for getting your first job in the game industry.

Über mich
Hey, I'm Zach. I've been making games at big studios for about ten years, and you can find me in the credits for Minecraft, Halo, and other cool stuff. I also make indie games on the side in both 2D and 3D, and I've been doing that for about twenty years. I've mentored junior developers at work, led small teams on game projects, and even taught my two young kids how to make their own games. I also program for Windows, the web, VR, and sometimes mobile.

Making a small video game is just about the most fun one can have with a computer (but I might be a little biased). Seeing everything come together (art, music, controls, gameplay) and knowing you're the one who made it happen is an absolute rush. I love seeing that amazement and pride on students' faces when everything clicks for the first time. I work with all ages and skills levels, from helping younger kids with their first Scratch project and walking them through the basics of how the computer thinks, all the way up to college grads learning Unreal Blueprints and C++.
