TGA UK

Look what arrived today from our wonderful friends at Wacom👀

We’re so excited to get these onto the desks as our artists begin their sculpting module to round off an amazing first year at The Game Assembly UK.

I think our programmers are feeling a little left out though… so I may need to put some thought into solving that next.

Industry tech for an industry training environment. A huge thank you to Wacom for supporting our learners and helping us build the kind of studio culture we want them to experience from day one.

This month’s Peer Appreciation Award goes to none other than Harry!

Another programmer has claimed the world-famous award and the highly desirable Golden Trout. After eight months in the making, Harry has absolutely smashed it over the past few months, helping to drive the team forward and contributing to some truly impressive work across the projects.

Harry has consistently supported his teammates, maintained a positive attitude, and demonstrated the kind of commitment and professionalism that makes a real difference to the studio environment.

Congratulations, Harry – a well-deserved recognition. Keep up the fantastic work, and enjoy your time as the proud owner of the Golden Trout! 🐟🏆👏

Such an excellent day in the studio yesterday 🙌

We had Studio Gobo back with us for a full day working directly with our devs—and this is exactly what makes TGA different.

No big lecture theatres. No passive learning.
Just hands-on discussions around game dev, real workflows, and industry expectations.

This session was all about our programmers, with Michael and James (Senior Engineers & a Studio Gobo founder) sharing their experience, giving feedback, and seeing first-hand the progress since their last visit in November. That kind of continuity is where real growth happens.

It’s been a busy few days at TGA with so many great visitors through the studio, and we want to take a moment to recognise and thank all of our studio partners who have supported us throughout the year. Your time, insight, and commitment have played a huge role in shaping the experience for our students.

Partnerships like Studio Gobo—and many others we’re proud to work with—are incredibly important to us. We don’t take them for granted. Together, we’re building a talent pipeline that genuinely works, for both students and studios.

Such an incredible event for our students and something we will be bringing to the UK next year. Exciting times. Well done to the students, staff and studios involved.

What an awesome day! Maddie from dropped in today to share her expertise on portfolios, job hunting, and reaching our full potential. As a Senior Environment Artist with an impressive array of games in the bag, we're stoked to have had her visit. Also a genuine .
