Created by professionals in the video game industry, the Gameable program aims to develop technology and game design skills in youth.
About the program
The program began as a pilot under the sponsorship of Technovation Montreal in 2023. The program is aimed at girls aged 13 to 18.
The concept is simple: teams of two to five participants, accompanied by mentors, develop a video game prototype on a given theme.
At the end of the program, participants will showcase what they’ve learned at a demo day attended by several industry representatives.
Through Gameable, participants will learn basic game design, production planning and programming skills.
