Picture this: your very own version of Super Mario, but in the magic mountains of Ancient Japan.

Embark with us on 5 x 90-minute interactive online sessions: we’ll use an action-packed adventure to show you how story, coding, and music form the ingredients of an awesome game. Then we’ll help you mix those ingredients together to create your original platformer quest!

By the end of the workshops, you will have created your own musical video game, and you’ll take away all the skills and (free) software you need to make more!

Here is the Award Ceremony from our previous course - enjoy the games!!
