Students will have their own original video game at the end of this class.Experiencia de clase
This class is a great entry point into the world of game design and coding for your kids. In this extremely accessible course, students will journey through the entire game development process from concept to design to development to porting & publishing on mobile platforms. This class uses RPG MAKER MV, a PROFESSIONAL game engine that truly lives up to it's tagline that it is SIMPLE ENOUGH FOR A CHILD. POWERFUL ENOUGH FOR A DEVELOPER. RPG Maker was created to fulfill the desire of creating an original RPG (role playing game) without programming knowledge - but MANY types of games such as platformers, maze games, arcade, action games and more. RPG Maker MV uses the well known JavaScript, in combination with HTML5 export. By mastering Javascript, you will be able to change the game to your liking, from Battles to Menu UIs. This feature is oriented to experienced developers. You now have the ability to control all parts of the game. No more hidden classes! With the latest installment, RPG MAKER MV allows the dreams of many of its fans to come true! RPG MAKER is the easiest and fastest way for your child to create their own games - and publish them on PC, iPad, Android a website and more! In this course, students will first learn the basics of using the RPG Maker Engine and begin building a full-fledged 2D Adventure RPG from day 1. 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 this course 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 RPG Maker 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.
