Why is it so hard to get a Game Dev internship, such a lack of support from Uni

    Can't you approach a Company that makes games and try to have an internship there? If the problem is with Uni I'm pretty sure that there can be a agreement between the uni and the company 😉 at least in my uni it's like that xp

    @gamedev too bad 😢 I'm actually going to start my internship next moment on mobile and web app development company. It's a small company but from what I've seen and heard, they will grow real nice

    I've had a similar issue starting out. I live in a place where there aren't many actual game publishers or companies for that matter.

    @gamedev in the same boat here, but in general with all software development jobs, which btw not what I wanna do.

    Too many companies near me what seniors and such :/

    Applied for jobs overseas and got no word back at all..
