Finally, you’re seconds away from Premium Workshops & Training, Industry Expert Advice
and getting that quality feedback & support for your games.
We’ve re-engineered our whole process along with what the Top Publishers want, we know, we’ve spoken to them.
App Store Foundation Course
Pulling back the curtain, we’ve channeled all our experience into a comprehensive, step-by-step implementation program that not only teaches you the high level theory, but the actual execution and how you can do the same. You’ll see everything we do from building our games through to the marketing.
This is the core building blocks of our strategy, our blueprint of what works for us and how we approach things. No learning the hard way, this is no fluff training covering 5 Modules & 54 Masterclass Topics.
Complete Hyper Casual Essentials
You’ll learn what goes into creating the Hit Games, the games you can see right now topping the charts.
Hyper casual games are the hottest new trend to hit the App Store and are dominating. In our usual No-Nonsense style, we’ve packaged up the core principles where you’ll learn the anatomy of what goes into creating this new wave of “Snackable” hit games.
If you’re looking to sign that life changing Publisher Deal and smash the No.1 top spot, then we have you covered.
Premium play testing videos with a bespoke breakdown on your game with ideas and action points.
Monthly Game Reviews & Action Plans
We give you expert, detailed feedback along with a recommended action plan. We’ll show how to polish your game, make improvements & the exact Publishers to pitch to.
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.

“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.”

Passionate about gaming, committed to excellence.
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 🙂
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.”
“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!”
