In this series of workshops, participants are going to learn about the concept of video game design and development using Buildbox software. They will be building an indie game from scratch, with different components and scenes.
Participants will be introduced to the concepts of video game design and development and will learn how to build their own jumping video game, using the Buildbox software.
