VGDA Long Beach

Our Mission is to utilize game development as a platform to meaningfully expand and enhance the professional and personal lives of our members, to cultivate significant personal, community, and industry relationships, to advocate for game development related topics in the educational, social, and political realms, and to inspire others to take a positive interest in game development and other associated fields.

Each semester, VGDA members have the opportunity to work in a studio-like environment where they develop a video game of “shippable” quality. Through this experience, members will not only cultivate key real-world job and personal skills, but they will also receive a credit on a published title.

Additionally, VGDA does it’s best to ensure that we remain connected to industry professionals by bringing in speakers, scheduling studio field trips, and other industry related activities.
