Gamers, assemble! This summer, transform your passion for playing into the power of creation with a game design summer program or camp. These programs are the perfect playground for ambitious developers, offering a blend of learning and fun that take your gaming experience to the next level. Don’t just play the games — design them! Craft new worlds and characters, and write the stories destined to captivate future players.
You won’t be merely mashing buttons and maneuvering a joystick in a game design summer program. You’ll learn about game development, coding and visual effects (VFX) fundamentals, and sound design. These programs cater to a range of interests, whether you’re fascinated by massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs) like World of Warcraft, the strategic intensity of player-vs-player (PVP) battles like Fortnite, or the nostalgic charm of classic performers (lookin’ at you, Tetris).
The best part? These summer programs and camps for game design are all about action. You’ll meet and collaborate with other enthusiastic game designers to bring your own unique ideas to life, building your game from scratch.
Ready to nurture that germinating seed of an idea and potentially grow it into the next great Minecraft or Counter-Strike? Check out one of these game design summer programs today!
