Hochschule Darmstadt

In the faculty of media at h_da, students don’t just study – they learn, create, and grow together in dynamic, close-knit groups.
The school’s international degree programme prioritizes project-based learning over traditional lectures following the believe that the best way to master game development and animation is by doing. Starting in the second semester, students collaborate in interdisciplinary teams – programmers, artists, and designers – to simulate real-world production environments.
These projects often transcend coursework, becoming professional portfolio pieces showcased at global festivals or released on multiple platforms. Among the six projects exhibited is a preview of the updated version “Blob The Klex,” winner of the German Computer Game Award 2025 for “Newcomer Award: Best Prototype”.
