Course Description
Video Game Maker
Ages: 9-13
Cost: $410/week (Full Day)
Does your child enjoy playing games like the Legend of Zelda, Super Mario RPG, or Costume Quest? Now they can make role-playing games come to life! Our Video Game Maker camp shows campers how to create their very own epic role-playing game where they can battle fierce monsters prowling in a dungeon or a secret world. Campers will learn what RPG is, the history of RPG, learn about the classic “Hero’s Journey,” all the best tips for storyline development, the character, and all aspects of the game.
Club SciKidz uses RPG Maker VXAce which features:
- A drag-drop interface
- Library of characters
- Tile-based environments
- Enhanced map editor
- Built-in character generator with custom sprites and faces
- Custom items and weapons
- Full inventory of weapons and armor
Once you have finished your project you can export your game to a portable EXE file that can be played on any Windows system. You can share it with your friends, your family, or even the Internet. Come join us as we bring those characters to life!
