Course Description

This hands-on video game camp will introduce you to game programming using Python--the scripting language behind hits like Battlefield 2142, Civilization IV and the Freedom Force series. You’ll be working with the same language used by professional game programmers, artists, and designers. You’ll learn all about programming topics like variables, loops, and functions--and doing it while making an asteroid collide with a ship or programming the AI (artificial intelligence) of a devious opponent. Whether you’re interested in programming, art or design, this camp is a fantastic way to get started.
