In this course, students will learn the fundamentals of game theory and design using the Godot game engine. In Unplugged and Coding lessons, students will apply gaming constructs and processes to plan and develop their own video games. Students will delve into game psychology, security measures, and troubleshooting techniques in Digital Citizenship lessons. STEM Career lessons focus on careers within the gaming industry.
