Futuregames partners with Arcweave for new video game narrative design course
Arcweave is now the tool of choice for Narrative Design for Video Games, the new online course from Futuregames.
This is the start of a long-term partnership, and we are proud to collaborate with a school that keeps proving its place at the top.
The school
Futuregames is among the world's top 10 game development schools. In The Rookies Global School Rankings 2026, they placed:
- 10th in Game Design & Development
- 4th in Production Excellence: Mobile Games
- 39th among the Top 50 Creative Schools.
The course
Narrative Design for Video Games is a fully online and beginner-friendly course. It kicked off this September, and students have already worked through several lectures on narrative design. Now it's time to put those ideas into practice.
With Arcweave, they can map out their branching stories, see how their narratives fit together, and showcase their work.
Arcweave's part
Our goal is simple: to help new narrative designers feel comfortable with the tools they'll use in their future coursework and, eventually, in their careers. Learning how to structure a branching story is hard enough, and we want the tool to be the easy part.
We also never miss a chance to connect with the creative minds of tomorrow. We will be giving the students an introductory seminar on Arcweave and its basics.
Your story
You may be considering enrolling to a narrative design course, like Narrative Design for Video Games by Futuregames. Or you may be a seasoned designer prototyping your next story.
Whatever your background, the best way to learn a tool is to use it.
Arcweave is an intuitive narrative engine that manages your collaboration and acts as your project's source of truth, including text, logic, and assets.
Arcweave is free to start, so you can build out a conversation, test how it plays, and see your narrative take shape without any setup or commitment.
And of course, share your work and get support on Arcweave Discord.
