Online Code Camp Premium YL See All Times

PICO-8 Game Development Online Code Camp YL July 5, 2021

PICO-8 Game Development - Recommended Ages 10+

Learn to make real 8-bit games on PICO-8 using Lua coding language. PICO-8 is a fantasy console for making, sharing, and playing tiny games and other computer programs. Technologists will use their creativity to build their own 8-bit games while learning basic programming concepts. Your technologist will need either a Windows computer or a Mac to participate. They also get to keep their own copy of PICO-8 console software when camp ends so they can continue projects. This camp is designed for intermediate coders.

The Zoom Meeting ID will be sent out by 2pm to all registered campers on the Friday before the camp. Zoom Meeting Room will be open at 9:25am Monday.

Campers will be required to have the following minimum technology available at home:

  • A Microsoft Windows PC. If you have a computer under the size of 13'', we would recommend using 2 devices (Example: a tablet for Zoom Meeting and the other device to code along).

  • Internet connection of at least 15 Mbps (most homes support at least this speed).

  • Microphone/Speakers - Many computers have a built-in microphone/speakers that should work.

  • A video/web camera connected to your computer allows us to see your child and coach them better based on their reactions.

Our popular summer camps are all about coding, fun, and making new friends. Our campers learn how to create games, compose music, design websites, and code all kinds of projects based on their personal interest.

Online Camps 2021. This summer, we will be bringing back an exciting range of online camps allowing your technologists to code safely from home. They will learn new technologies while still interacting with other technologists. We'll build in screen-free breaks and a lot of interactivity to keep everyone engaged. These camps will use Zoom and will run from 9:30am-2:30pm with a 1 hour lunch break from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm.

We understand the need for flexibility in summer planning. All camps are designated as either online or in-person and are fully refundable. If you need to withdraw from a camp, please let us at least 3 days before the start of your camp.
