Most universities require a # of credit hours to be taken with them before they will give you a degree- typically 4 semesters worth, though there is some variation. Have you checked the policies at the schools you are considering transferring to?
What, exactly, ‘all fell apart’ at the end of last year?
From here, grad school sounds like a red herring: in a field like game design experience is going to matter more than course work. Have you focused hard on who might hire you / where you would like to work? Have you done any (relevant) internships?! If not, why not? (I call bs on not having any game design companies as an excuse, btw- our lot do/have done internships all over the map- you can find out about & apply for things w/out being physically present).
