Codificación y diseño de juegos con Godot Engine: nivel 0 (clase introductoria)

In this course, students will first learn the basics of using the Godot Engine and spend the first 3-4 weeks learning how to build full-fledged 2D and 3D games using Godot Game Engine. 

In the second half of the class, students will build a full-fledged 3D game using Godot's Official 3D Game Kit. 

Students will be provided with all the necessary tools and resources and guided through the entire game development process. Students will be encouraged to be as creative and original as possible throughout the entire course. What differentiates these classes  from others is that this course focuses on the digital arts as well: Visual Arts, Graphic Design, Audio & Music Production, Reading and Creative Writing. Intro to Game Design & Coding With Godot Engine is truly a STEAM (Science Technology Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) course. By the end of this class, students will have have not just created their own video game from scratch, but also be able to play it on any desktop computer or mobile device.

PARENTS PLEASE NOTE: 
Coding will be implemented and taught throughout the class but will NOT be the core focus of this class as coding compromises only about 10-15% of game development.
