“I think any developer at any level will gain a great deal by joining Kevin’s academy. Not only is Kevin a great person, but the Academy is full of systems, tips, tricks, tools, and the community is full of smart, like-minded individuals.
There’s so much information inside and I have taken away tons of valuable insights and strategies, I just wish I had this when I was starting out!
Kevin over delivers for sure.”

Personalised Game Feedback & Consultation
Monthly Testflight Testdrive
Every tried getting feedback from Social Media Groups or worse still, Youtube?
If the answer is yes, then you’ll definitely know already that unqualified advice or even trolls is next to useless.
We feel good advice should come from experience, from those who have been there before you and most of all, from a place of context.
Without context it’s impossible to get quality advice.
Each Month, you can submit your games to us and we’ll provide you with an in-depth, personalised 15 minute feedback Video.
We’ll sit down and play your game and advise you on gameplay, art style, onboarding, UI / UX and offer any recommendations.
We’ll understand what your heading for, where you want to take your game and match our feedback tailored to your specific goals.

“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 weekly live sessions are an invaluable resource advising you of todays fast moving market. Watching, listening and reading everything on the Academy has actually brought me more focus to building games.
It has removed indecision from my game building and allowed me to concentrate on the quality of the game without worrying about the route I’m going down.
If you digest everything on the Academy and really listen and read all the advice that is there, you’ll have a great chance of success.
Fantastic information for all levels to help you both create a game and market it. How to find Publishers and approach them. The best Ad networks to use and implement them.
Simply put, to have the best chance of success for your game you need the RisingHigh Academy.”

Each week we host a 1 Hour Live Q & A call ( we usually go over on time! ) where we are here to answer any questions you may have. These are very relaxed and informal and our goal is to get you past any struggles you may be facing that week.

“It is literally a no-brainer for me. Since I joined the first day they announced it and I am still here, part of the family. You will get ten times the value you invested.
It has helped me to master the art of game polish, see trends and save a lot of development time because of their early feedback. I’ve created a great game that I am super proud of because of their constant positive and constructive feedback. Kevin actually jumped into Photoshop multiple times for me to mock-up something that would blow my mind.
If you want to create great games and get early feedback then this is the place to be. I was frustrated as I did not know how good or bad my game was, but now, I’ve created a dev log inside the academy and I get constant feedback from the members!
I feel like Kevin, Jilly and the whole academy is looking over my shoulder helping me every step of the way so I can keep on the right path.”

A Little Bit About Us…
13 Games – 13 Apple Homepage Features
Hey there, we’re Kevin & Jilly, otherwise known as RisingHigh!
We’ve been in the mobile space for a little over 6 years now and extremely honoured to have over 18 million downloads so far and signed 7 Publisher deals.
We’re proud to have been featured by Apple & Amazon on countless occasions.
As creative types, we’re super passionate on all aspects of building and creating games and now, as well as running RisingHigh Studio, our game label, we’re also focussing on helping others realise their potential and building games too.
When we’re not geeking out with all the gaming stuff we’ll generally be… well, actually, let’s be honest, we’ll be either thinking about or playing games 🙂
Some frequently asked questions about 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!
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.

“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.”
