About Galactic Studio

Galactic Studio is a growing independent game development studio, currently run by a solo developer. While still in its early stages, the goal is to operate with the same level of professionalism and efficiency as a AAA studio. This internship provides a hands-on, real-world game development experience, allowing interns to work directly on a game project using Unreal Engine 5 and C++ while maintaining a flexible schedule.
