University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point CE - IT Camp: Video Game Programming - Online!
IT CAMP: VIDEO GAME PROGRAMMING IS NOW OFFERING OUR CAMPS ONLINE!
Learn how to code , develop, and program your own video game! Camps "A" will learn the basics of computer and game programming using GDevelop. No previous experience is necessary. Camps "B" require some coding and/or game development experience. You will use advanced concepts in game design such as 3D elements and coding using C++. Various programs will be used such as Unity, GameMaker Studio, and Unreal Engine.
"A" Camps
We offer A Camps for middle/high school students with potentially zero background in IT or programming. We're using a free, open source programming tool called "GDevelop." GDevelop is a deceptively powerful programming tool that essentially developed its own language to help people create games relatively simply and quickly. It could be likened to a "drag and drop" style of code but it's slightly more complex.
"B" Camps
B Camps are new this year! We will be using more powerful engines that might require C++, Java, or Python.
