Travel back in time and rediscover the joy of retro gaming and unleash your inner game developer! This summer camp invites young coders to step back in time and create their very own retro arcade games using the programmable Retro Arcade game console and MakeCode Arcade platform. Participants will bring their game ideas to life, combining creativity and coding skills to design playable adventures straight out of the golden age of gaming.
Throughout the camp, attendees will:
• Learn the fundamentals of coding and game design using MakeCode Arcade.
• Develop their own unique retro-style games, complete with custom characters, obstacles, and levels.
• Test their games on the Retro Arcade console, experiencing the thrill of playing their creations on actual hardware.
• Collaborate with fellow campers, sharing tips, feedback, and inspiration as they polish their masterpieces.
This camp is perfect for aspiring game designers, tech enthusiasts, or anyone curious about coding and creativity. It’s not just about making games—it’s about developing skills, exploring ideas, and having a blast.
At the end of the camp, each student takes home their game controller and all the games they created, so the fun never stops! No prior coding experience is required—just a love for gaming and creativity. Level up and register today!
