Step into the shoes of a professional video game developer
The Roblox platform provides open-ended immersive experiences that captivated kids and teens. With our course, kids will no longer just play within these virtual worlds but gain the skills to create and build their own while learning Coding, Design, and Physics.
Our goal in this course is to empower students to become creators of digital media rather than just consumers. From programming to editing, your kid's favorite hobby could become an awesome outlet for his or her imagination.
Returning students will experience all-new lessons and challenges.
CREATIVE GAME DEVELOPMENT WITH ROBLOX STUDIO:
Roblox Studio encourages play and creativity as users develop their own games, turn their ideas into reality, and share them with others in the community. Through the design and implementation of game logic and creativity, learners are introduced to the principles and foundations of computer algorithms and given the foundation for advanced programming.
LUA PROGRAMMING:
Roblox Studio uses the typed-out scripting language called Lua. Lua is similar to Python, but even easier to teach since it does not require strict adherence to indentations and other syntax that create hurdles for new learners. Learners complete various projects and challenges that allow them to fully master Lua's programming concepts and techniques while completing their own game.
