RCET kicked-off the Game Design & Virtual Worlds camp this morning in the AT&T Classroom. Across the week the campers will be working with GameMaker 8.1 Lite to build video games. Produced by YoYo Games, the GameMaker platform introduces kids to the basic elements of digital game design including sprites, sounds, background, paths, and scripts. This morning the campers worked with two game projects within GameMaker, beginning with Catch the Clown and then progressing to Evil Clutches.
