This includes approaches for 2D and 3D graphic game spaces, implementation of animation, sound, interaction and simulation, introductory coding, game mechanics, and basic UX design for supporting a fun and effective player experience. Participants will not need any prior experience with making games or animation, but those with a basic understanding will take their knowledge to the next level.
