Tyler Hill — Game Developer with Heart
Tyler Hill’s journey to his dream career started with a simple thought: “If you enjoy what you do, you never work a day in your life.”
As a community college transfer student, Tyler discovered his passion for creating video games that make people smile. Through Baker College’s Game Software Development program, he found the perfect blend of creativity, technology, and purpose.
“Video games have the power to connect people and bring joy,” Tyler says. “My dream is to create games that help people escape tough times or enhance good moments.”
Baker College’s fully online, flexible program allowed Tyler to complete his degree while balancing life’s demands. Thanks to transfer scholarships and financial aid, he graduated with minimal costs—and maximum satisfaction.
“Between the scholarship and FAFSA, I owed almost nothing each semester. The format was perfect for my learning style. I couldn’t be happier with my experience at Baker.”
Today, Tyler is ready to take his next big leap into the world of game design—armed with skills, confidence, and a mission to spread joy through his work.
