''The best part about BAFTA YGD is that you get feedback on your game from industry experts, and this gives you the opportunity to network. Participating in the competition already shows that you can be dedicated and passionate enough to make or design a game from scratch, which definitely gets you on an employer’s radar – and from there a foot in the door.''
