Overview
First Steps in Game Development turns your child from a game player into a proud game creator. Students dive into a magical, story‑driven world where they design and build their own simple browser‑based games using fun, kid‑friendly coding tools.
Through clear, step‑by‑step projects, children create multiple games while building problem‑solving skills, creativity, and logical thinking as they customise characters, colours, and stories to match their imagination.
This course is perfect for complete beginners—no coding experience needed—and is also an ideal next step for students who completed Term 1: AI World Builders, giving them a smooth transition from block and AI‑supported creation into real text‑based coding.
