Holiday season is here and for many of us it means more spare time and opportunity to learn new thing or deeper existing knowledge. My personal plan is to use Microsoft Virtual Academy for refreshing me game development skills.

With over 2000 free courses in 14 languages, MVA is a good option for staying up-to-date with the technologies and frameworks. Over 30 million videos already viewed in 2014 by 2.5 million users and my pre-New Year resolution is to watch

• Game Production Basics
• Creating Your First Marmalade Game
• Build a Game with Cocos2d-x for Windows Devices

Happy Holidays!
