Giorgi Abelashvili

Giorgi Abelashvili is a senior video game developer and industry expert with over 15 years of professional experience. He currently works at the international company DECA Games, where he contributes to large-scale projects such as Tomb Raider, Hitman, and ShadowGun Legends. In parallel, he is an indie developer whose portfolio includes games released for both PC platforms (Steam) and leading consoles such as Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox. He is the creator of one of the most popular and commercially successful Georgian games, Drift King, and has developed several other projects, including Difficult Game About Letters and Winkings.

Giorgi will lead the introductory Game Development course, which is based on the Unity engine and the C# programming language. The course is designed as an intensive, student-centered, hands-on learning experience, where strong emphasis is placed not only on theoretical foundations but also on personalized feedback, technical precision, and real-world development workflows.

Drawing on his diverse professional background, Giorgi will guide students through the process of planning and building their own game prototype from scratch - from the fundamental principles of C# to project architecture and optimization within the Unity environment. Through his mentorship, students will acquire the engineering mindset and practical skills required to create high-quality products, and by the end of the course, they will deliver a complete, well-structured game project ready to move into the production stage.
