Game development in Lithuania: Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a portfolio for game development in Lithuania?
Usually not for admission, which is based on Class 12 marks, English and an interview. But build one during your studies: it decides your first job.
Is game development technical or artistic?
Both, depending on the programme. MRU covers design and animation as well as development; Vilnius Business College's programme is more programming-oriented.
