In this self-paced course, participants will have the opportunity to learn the basics of video game development and design their own games using kid-friendly developer tools. The course will run for 5 self paced weeks. Your student will have time to work on small projects. Our curriculum has been carefully designed to cover the main topics in game design and development, including exploring and designing platform-style 2D game experiences, understanding 2D game design principles, defining iterative design in game development, identifying elements that make fun gameplay, and understanding platforming elements in games.
