The experience at DSK Supinfogame has been awesome, for having met different kinds of people from different backgrounds; it's been wonderful to see such a culmination of different people from around the world. Everybody is very energetic and enthusiastic.
Being the Jury for 2 of the prototypes, both of which were really good, the polish and kind of game play that they have got into, it's wonderful to see such projects coming out from students, who are just going to pass out. This shows that we are ready with such kind of talent. I've met a lot of interesting people here with a lot of enthusiasm, who have approached me and asked about the gaming industry what it involves, the kind of skill sets that they need to possess, it shows the kind of passion they have. They are really concerned and they want to know everything. They have done some amazing work, the level of quality and finish in the board games is stellar, so I would say that they are really talented bunch.

Having met some excellent talent at DSK Supinfogame, I see some really good talent coming out. Couples of presentations that I heard on the games were really good. The faculties have done an excellent job for the students, and they are at the right place where the industry can pick the students, and put them into product placements. I really love the enthusiasm of the people here. I wish them the best of luck and hope they keep producing same quality of people.
I think there is a lot of latent potential in the Indian game industry. There are lot of people who are hungry to make games, but they don't know how to and they don't have the means to. This school gives them the opportunity, not only in terms of bringing people who have been in the industry and exposing these kids to these people but providing the infrastructure they need to have that kind of training.
The school here is awesome and the people who are running it are doing an awesome job. Talent wise it is already there, but talent is only so much till you actually make it something. And this is what I believe DSK Supinfogame is doing. From what I have seen the students are doing a great job. What I would like the students to do is interact with the industry a little bit more, get out there and start talking to people.

The experience has been good so far, I like the environment that students are growing up into. The trainers here are really experienced and come from a very talented background. Having worked on a lot of things and I think they can really train the students really well here.
The best work that I saw today was Nano Masara, an ipod game. I really like the game because the way you play the game using an accelerometer, and the strategy involved in playing the game, it really felt good. This one really stood out from rest of the projects.
The talent level here is really good and improving year by year. The students are exposed to a hands on experience on industry standard engines like unity and all the projects that they are doing right now is based on unity, which is now very much used by major companies. So I think they are really growing up to international standards.

The experience here has been really an eye opener. I never thought there would be such an institute in Pune, infact India, the infrastructure, the faculty, the students, is very well done and is exactly what is required in this industry.
The work that I saw was truly outstanding. The quality of all the work and the board game that was presented, and the two games that we saw today were really good. Very original concept. The talent levels are really high and they really know what they are doing and they are using the right tools, and once they pass out from here, I'm confident they find their place in the industry. Continue doing the good work that you are doing.

Being the jury for the first time the experience has been amazing. I have seen some awesome work from the first year students who presented board games and two of the games that were presented by the final year students.
Out of the two games we judged, the ipad game was really good and it was product really to be published. The talent level is really high as they are benchmarking the industry standards here.

My experience with DSK Supinfogame has been quiet amazing, the entire organization is very professional and the set up is world class, making it quiet the place to find the learning environment and that is very impressive.
Having seen the students work and portfolio, I'm very impressed with what they have learnt and they are coming out of the school with great knowledge base of all the different things they will need to be a good game designer. Since, they get to touch all different aspects; it's great to see that kind of training and discipline being brought into the young game designer students, something that India has needed for a long time, it's great to see it's starting here.
With the presence of international skill and talent, one gets a nice blend of both India and other countries, and receives a good world view and understanding different practices that are done world-wide. Here the facilities are amazing with all the required equipment, lots of guidance, and the best thing is from ideation to completing prototype. With every step being measured and tested; they have a great curriculum to teach. The curriculum is very impressive.
From my profession experience, the kind of talent I see coming out of DSK Supinfogame is really good, and better than most of the game designers. They go back to the basics, strengthen the foundation and then let the students build on those foundation skills, into more complex developing pipelines in games.
I would like to tell the students that when they are designing a game, to do a lot of research, to think about your target demographic, understand what is it that drives them, why they connect to the game and why they want to play. Think about how this will make money, if you know your target demographic, you should also know what is the monetization model that will drive this game into being such a success. There are lots of elements you will learn here, like play testing of a design and level design, game balance. These are incredibly important aspects of the skill which brings the art of game design that you need to focus on, based on the skills that you are learning.
