EGG ACADEMY
4 Week Online Course for Ages 15-18
Cost: $125 | Course Starts 2nd Sept, 2024
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Our Game Development for Neuro-Diverse Learners course is for students aged 15-18, helping them get on track for further studies or careers in digital fields by building a strong foundation in technology and creativity.
Over four weeks, students will create their own game using GDevelop, a free online software that encourages creativity and problem-solving. This course blends independent learning with structured live sessions, allowing each student to progress at their own pace while receiving the support they need to thrive.
By the end of the course, each student will have developed a playable platform game, which they can proudly showcase at our end-of-term Creative Showcase.
