CREATE A BREATHTAKING 2D & 3D GAME
Whether you're a beginner or pro, I'll teach you my tried and true method for creating a 2D platformer. In fact, I used this system when creating a 2D game for the world's largest YouTuber, Pewdiepie. My buddy David Wehle will also teach your through his process of creating a 3D game with no code!
It's simple and effective, and I can't wait to show you how it's done!

WHAT SETS FULL TIME GAME DEV APART?
Anyone can make and sell games, full time. And I mean anyone. That's because game development isn't about technical skill and talent. It's primarily about everything else that propels a game to a large audience: marketing, sales, building a brand, and more.
Most online courses just teach the technical aspects of game development. Frankly, that's only 25% of game development. Fortunately, with this course, I'll teach you everything you need to know to make a big splash on Steam and start making enough money to sustain yourself and your family (or even make a 6-figure salary!)

I'M THOMAS BRUSH, AND I'LL BE YOUR COACH!
I started creating my first commercial release in school, and continued its development while working a desk job I hated. I finished that game being completely self-taught. Not only that, I've always been a clumsy, awkward and seemingly moronic dude. I've always had difficulty grasping abstract concepts. But somehow I’ve consistently earned a six-figure income for half a decade making indie games.
My games Pinstripe & Neversong have launched on pretty much every single platform, all while I’ve grown a large following of over 215,000 subscribers, teaching game development on YouTube. I even made a game for the world’s biggest YouTuber in just 14 days.
From Kickstarter to working with publishers, and everything in between, I’ve done it all. I know you can do it too, and I’m going to show you the short-cuts to success so you don’t have to wander around aimlessly for a decade like I did! Let’s do this!

DAN MCNEELY, ARMOR GAMES STUDIOS OWNER
“Some call him Thomas, but I call him teacher, savant, prodigy and friend. Rarely do you find such a well rounded and versed game developer these days. When Thomas isn't composing heart tugging music, drawing museum quality art or writing code; He's a husband, father, mentor, director and someone you want on your team! I'd highly recommend taking Thomas's course! You will sit and learn from a truly gifted person!”
DAVID WHELE
GAME DEV UNLOCKED, "THE FIRST TREE"
“Thomas Brush has a way of teaching that boils down these complex topics into something a total beginner can understand, and something like that is practically required when dealing with a complicated process like game development. At the end of the day, Thomas will cheer you on all while teaching you the knowledge required to make a game and tell an engaging story.”
