Visual Coding Summer Tech Camp

Pokémon-Inspired Game Coding

In this class, we introduce students to programming concepts using Scratch. Learn to create an interactive 2D video game using your FAVORITE Pokémon-inspired characters. Students will be walked through step-by-step tutorials to create 2-4 working games and animations using popular themed sprites. With time remaining, students will be challenged to modify or improve the games created in class. Bring a USB drive to save your games on the last day.
