Programs & Hero Paths
Pick a path that fits your life—not the other way around. Each level builds the same creative technology foundation: 3D, systems thinking, design craft, iteration. You can switch paths between terms; your progress, builds, and capstone momentum stay intact.
Why Levels?
Consistency beats grind. Some weeks you can go full focus; other seasons you need margin. Our intensity tiers let you sustain forward motion instead of burning out then restarting.
Output compounds: prototypes → systems → polished vertical slice → portfolio narrative.
Choose Your Learning Path
Each path is designed to build the same foundational skills while respecting your schedule and learning style.

You can still switch intensity before kickoff—momentum matters more than a perfect initial pick.
