2018 Games

The NYU Game Center is proud to announce the 5th year of the Incubator program! The 2018 Incubator consists of 10 designers and developers working on 6 different games. In our 5th year of the program we are supported by New York’s Empire State Development as well as York University’s Refiguring Innovation in Games (ReFiG) program. From June-September, teams receive a living stipend, work-space, professional development workshops, as well as access to and mentorship from a board of advisors both local and international with experience in all aspects of the game industry.
