Game Design Curriculum Developer (Florida CTE, Unity)

About Endless Studios and Endstar

Endless Studios teaches game development through real studio projects. We are bringing a full game design curriculum into US high school CTE programs, starting in Florida in January 2027.

Students build in Endstar, our 3D game engine. Endstar is designed so first-time creators can start making games right away, with no coding experience needed. They place props and shape terrain, then use rule blocks to wire up how things in the game interact. From there they grow into Lua scripting to customize how objects behave, and into our Unity-based SDK to build their own props and environments. Students can build together in the same game in real time, publish what they make, and play and give feedback on games from other creators.

Getting you up to speed: You don’t need Endstar experience to apply. If you’ve taught Unity, much of it will feel familiar and we'll train you. Your hours for onboarding are fully paid and include: Endstar training, a guided walkthrough with our CTE product lead, then building a short game of your own with the Endstar wiki and scripting docs. That way you know the platform from the student’s side before you write a lesson for it.
