DESCRIPTION: For kids who dare to design and play their own games!
From pixel art and animation, to spinner games and games of chance, timers and timed games, mazes and pac-man style games - we’ll explore game genres, design, build, and play our own original games.
Participants will learn about game mechanics, game design, prototyping and play-testing. Those who opt-in the coding option will also learn digital art, animation, and block-based coding. Please note Arcade Coder requires an iPad to work with.
