LEVEL UP: 5-Day Game Dev Boot Camp (16-18)
*Your Game. Your Rules. No Code.* Learn to build a game in the style you like. Whether it's a *Shooter*, a *Platformer*, a *Treasure Hunt*, or something wild like a *Floating Hotdog Destroyer*
We’ll guide you through building a *3D First-Person Game. The best part? *There is ZERO coding.* We use visual logic to make things happen, so you can focus on the fun stuff:
The Mechanics:
Tweak the physics to match your style. Make your character sprint, jump, shoot, or fly without writing a single line of code.
The UI:
Make it look pro. Create health bars, ammo counters, and start screens using simple visual tools.
*No experience needed.* We provide the tech. You bring the chaos.
THE LOGISTICS
Can I come solo?* Yep. Loads of people do. It’s a chill, safe space to meet other creators. What about lunch? 12:30 PM daily. Eat here or head out. Just tell us if you leave the site. How many spots?* *10 Spots Only.* Small group = more help for you.
GAMER SOCIAL FAQs
Do I need a PC?
No. We have high-end rigs ready for you.
Is it hard to learn?
Not at all, we are using a simple workflow that is easy to learn, you don't even need to learn a programming language. It’s all drag-and-drop logic. If you can think it, you can build it.
Team or Solo?
Your call. Work alone on your vision or squad up with a friend to build something huge.
Do I keep the game?
lways. Take the project files home. Since GDevelop is free to use, you can keep modding and playing your game forever.
FAQs
Can my child attend the workshop on their own?
Yes. While we are happy for you to attend the workshop with your child, all of our facilitators and workshop leads carry an enhanced DBS certificate and your child will be in a safe space throughout the workshop.
What are the arrangements for lunch?
Lunch will be from 12.30pm each day. We have a lunch space for workshop participants to eat on site. If you and your child choose for them to attend the workshop on their own, we kindly ask you to make arrangements for lunch and leave us with a contact phone number so we can reach you quickly if needed. If you plan to meet them and take them offsite for lunch, please let us know when you drop them off, for safeguarding purposes.
What is the capacity for the sessions?
There are 10 spaces on the workshop. If we have high levels of interest you will be added to a waiting list and we will inform you if that is the case. We will update this page and contact all those on the waitlist if a space becomes available.
