Welcome to EN 307!

Press Start: Writing for Games

Play the Game

We’ll have fun, and start to unpack the ideas and craft behind what makes games ‘fun’ in the first place.

Join a Party

We’ll work together in a project-oriented environment, learning essential cooperation, communication, and professional skills.
