“I think of this like my Netflix series of game development”
“What I like most about the Academy is that it has helped me get out of my own little game development bubble and to open up to new ideas and different ideas I wasn’t thinking about. I find the weekly Academy Live videos most valuable.
I usually catch the replay on Monday, I think of this like my Netflix series of game development. Kevin and Jilly’s walkthrough of the top charts, trends, new games, old games, relevant sites and the like, really helps give me a different view on what’s happening in the mobile game space.
Chances are if you’re starting out in mobile game design or development, you are going to make a lot of mistakes and waste a lot of time. Learn from the knowledge, the experience and the mistakes the Academy and the members have to share.”

“Joining Rising High Academy was one of the best decisions of my career. If you are an indie dev looking to make it big in the industry, THIS is the place for you. Right from conceptualising game ideas through to publishing your game, they have got you covered on all fronts.
Not only are Kevin and Jilly extremely resourceful and honest in their approach, they also have great community of smart and experienced developers who help carve your games to its best shape.
The best thing about the academy is the Friday Live sessions that help analyse fresh trends every week and the Test Drive sessions where Kevin and Jilly help take the game to the next level with their highly insightful feedback.
The support and the content provided in Rising High is unmatched. I am grateful that I became a member right when I dived into game development. Saved me a lot of time since they gave all the resources required to succeed in the gaming industry!”

But don’t just take our word for it,
here’s what some of our members are saying…
“Becoming a RisingHigh student was a great decision for me. The Academy has helped me learn game design, market research, discipline as a dev and many more key skills.
The Academy is also my inspiration and a major source of learning. I recommend anyone who wants to learn all about the Mobile Game industry & Business. There is huge amount of content inside to learn and grow.”
“It all changed after I joined the Academy! How do I get my game Featured by Apple? How do I get my game in front of a Publisher & create a game worthy of being published? How do I get signed?
One of the most invaluable things the RisingHigh Academy teaches is exactly just that and more!”
“Kevin and Jilly at RisingHigh truly live up to the name. They are consistently creating games that not only rank high but raise the bar for game design. Their Training is awesome, they think outside the box and constantly impress.”
“The most valuable thing for me is the Academy community, such a warm place based on very well established values. The info inside will turn you into a first class game maker and, if you’re willing to work hard, a better entrepreneur.”
“If you’re new to the games market then all the questions you have about building a game are answered here at the Academy.
If you have built a few games or even if you have been in the game industry for many years, you’ll find tips and info that will help you further your knowledge and game building skills.”
“The Academy has helped me to master the art of game polish, see trends & saved a lot of dev time because of early feedback.
I’ve created a great game that I’m super proud of because of their constant positive, constructive guidance. Kevin actually jumped into Photoshop multiple times for me to mock-up something that would blow my mind.”
“Kevin & Jilly at RisingHigh are fantastic! They are really great at taking a step back and telling you what you need to tweak when comes to games or art. Their Training is freaking great, they really do think out side the box.
They stay on top of what is trending and take suggestion on what they should research and talk about next. The community is amazing and truly bar none when it comes to supporting one another.”
“Whether you are new to game development or an experienced developer the Rising High Academy needs to be on your radar! Prior to joining, I was in the constant cycle of starting a new game or project and never being able to finish it.
Now I have the knowledge and more importantly the confidence needed to finish projects, it’s a great feeling and I have the Academy to thank for that!
Kevin and Jilly have truly created an amazing community that I would proudly recommend to anyone else interested in game development.”

Some frequently asked questions your
fellow game developers asked before diving into the Academy.
I’m new to building games, is the Academy right for me?
Absolutely and you’re most welcome! Whilst we do cover many advanced topics, our Foundation course alone will ensure you’re putting your best foot forward with the all the fundamentals covered. We can show you how to get started and support you along the way, there’s no need to go it alone!
Do I need to use Buildbox to join the Academy?
Absolutely not! Whilst we use Buildbox to develop our games and absolutely love it, the Academy at its heart is all about building games regardless of the tech. We have many members using software such as Unity, Game Maker, Playmaker, Corona and swift!
Will I learn how to use Buildbox?
We cover a lot of ground within our “Watch Us Build” series where we use Buildbox to create 2 of our Apple Featured games, however these are not really step-by-step tutorials.
We do have various workshops where we go into optimising our Buildbox games for release, adding analytics SDK’s and certain project settings to achieve gameplay types, but, if you are looking specifically for Buildbox training then we always suggest visiting the Official Buildbox Youtube Channel, the Buildbox Website and Forums.
What if I want to cancel my Membership?
We know that the value inside the Academy is second to none, but we also realise that you’ll most likely not stick around forever. Yes. We will be sad, but if something comes up and you’re intent on leaving, you can do so without the need to even contact us. From your dashboard, you can either self cancel or simply put a pause on your membership for a few months.
Do you offer Group / Team Memberships?
Whilst we obviously don’t allow group buys, we do understand that often they’ll be 2 or more people in your team. If you’re after a Team membership, which will allow multiple attendees to the Live Sessions and Q & A’s, please drop us an email and we’ll discuss the options.

“I love the Friday live sessions and really appreciate Kevin and Jilly’s honest approach in the academy. You can ask literally anything and rest assure that they will share their own experience whenever they can (and that is really rare in this industry).
What I like the most though is that new trends are researched (together with the community) and this makes the academy constantly evolving and adapting to the market. When I joined almost a year back, hyper casual games were getting big and the Academy immediately shifted towards this new direction which is not only great but literally priceless.”
