About the activity:

Dive into game design by creating your own project using GDevelop, a beginner-friendly engine perfect for aspiring developers. Learn game theory, storytelling, and design principles as you collaborate with peers to craft levels, custom sprites, and mechanics using visual code and built-in behaviors. Bring your ideas to life with features like player movement, pathfinding, and event triggers, and polish your creation with engaging gameplay. By the end of the course, publish your game online for others to play, gaining skills that pave the way for future work in Unity or Unreal Engine. Your tuition includes a take-home project, diploma, transcript, and a limited-edition t-shirt!
