About Lunar Academy

Lunar Academy is the intergalactic learning platform powered by Mooncolony 🌕 We were founded in 2023 with just one mission: to give artists the skills they need to make it in the games industry.

At Mooncolony, the team often saw promising artists held back by:

A lack of industry skills
A portfolio not designed for art recruiters
No support, feedback, or accountability

Learning art by yourself is hard. That’s why we created Lunar Academy: to help aspiring game artists turn a passion into a successful career 💪

At Lunar Academy, you’re learning from the industry’s top artists.

‍

There’s a lot (a LOT) of educational art content out there 😵‍💫 But how much of it is taught by real expert artists?

All our mentors are senior professionals working at Mooncolony: a premium studio with incredibly high artistic standards. Our team knows the industry inside and out, and they want to help aspiring game artists thrive 💼

Our mentors have worked with some of the world’s leading video game companies.
