Roblox Escape Room Game Design Course

During the course of this program, students will be introduced to a number of key game development concepts using the Roblox platform. Over the 4 classes, the instructor will cover topics such as: 3D design and spatial awareness; using scripts to enhance the world and add further functionality; play-testing; and troubleshooting level design.  Students will learn how to create awesome Escape Room themed games in which they will be able to share with family and friends once completed!

The skills developed in this course will provide a great foundation for game development in Roblox Studio and beyond. Furthermore, students will build skills useful for interacting in the digital world, as well as being applicable to other aspects of life: collaboration, teamwork, problem-solving and analytical thinking. 

Small-Group Class: To ensure each child gets the attention they need to succeed, our classes are small which gives our teachers the opportunity to give each child the individual attention and teaching they need. 

Commitment to Class Community: Who says Virtual Classes can't have all the social benefits of in-person classes? At Wiz Kid Coding, we believe in the power of collaborative learning, teamwork and friendship. During the class, students will participate in fun community-building activities and team-based exercises designed to build collaboration skills and create an uplifting camp environment. 

Notes: In the first class, our instructor will teach students how to use Roblox Studio. Although your child may already know their way around Roblox Studio, it is important for us to go through the software as Roblox Studio has over 20 different categories of game development tools with Over 150 objects - and it is important for students to know the core building tools prior to advancing to more complex activities. After the first class, students will work on Roblox Projects to help advance their game design skills. At the end of the course, students will have built multiple Roblox games that they can share with friends and family.

Prerequisites: This class is an introductory class, however, students should have basic computer and typing skills in order to have the best class experience.

Please note that this class is not a coding class, although students will be introduced to Lua scripting and use some coding to enhance their Game Design
