CES2-63393-D Video Game & Animation: Grades 5 & 6

Course Description

Go beyond the limits of 2-D game design! Learn the physics behind 3-D games, exploring beginner event scripting, level design, controlling flow of gameplay and storytelling. Go to the next level by creating and animating your own character sprites, objects, and backgrounds. Finish with a fully animated character to be used in your very own game. Note: no prior experience in game design, animation or sketching needed. Students will work in pairs or teams for most of the program. Created games will be available on a password protected Black Rocket website to share with family and friends. Returning students can create more advanced projects that build on previous years. Games are only compatible on PC computers. Bring a bag lunch to camp each day.
