Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get the student discount?

Sign up with your .edu email. You'll get full access for $9/month, or free if your school has a partnership with us. No credit card required for the free trial.

Can I join a project without prior game dev experience?

Yes. Student and volunteer roles exist specifically for people building their first game. Browse open projects, review the scope and workload, and apply to roles that match your skills (or skills you want to learn).

How does the 15-week curriculum work for educators?

We provide a complete 4-credit, semester-long Game Production curriculum with weekly modules, lecture materials, worksheets, and assessment templates. Faculty receive full onboarding and ongoing support. The curriculum integrates with your existing program and can be adapted to your academic calendar.

What if I'm a lecturer without a production background?

No problem. Our faculty training helps educators from art, design, programming, or other backgrounds teach production skills confidently. The structured curriculum includes instructor guides, teaching notes, and ready-to-use materials that remove the need to build content from scratch.

How much does it cost for colleges and universities?

Multi-seat licenses are available for classes and programs. Pricing varies based on institution size and program needs. Contact us for a custom quote and to discuss partnership options including free student access for enrolled programs.

Do I own the IP of what I build on Gamers Home?

Yes. Everything you create belongs to you (or your team, depending on your agreement). We don't train AI on student work, and we never claim rights to your game. Full policy at /ai-policy.

Can students use this for capstone projects?

Absolutely. Students can manage their capstone projects on Gamers Home, tracking milestones, tasks, and team collaboration—just like working indie studios. The platform provides portfolio-ready artifacts and experience that helps with placements and graduate roles.

Can I upgrade to a paid plan later if my project takes off?

Yes. Start with Student pricing, upgrade to Core or Pro as your team grows. Your project data stays intact, and you keep all your collaborators and milestones. Many student projects have transitioned to commercial indie studios this way.
