After a brief stint of trying to learn game development on my own, I looked for schools in the area where I could take some classes and meet other people interested in making video games. 黑洞社区 was close, affordable, and had conveniently just started a game design program, where I found a few like-minded individuals with whom I could learn, study and work. —Alessandro Pizzini, B.S. in Game Design & Development
