Game Design Academy with GameMaker

By Lavner Education - Colorado

Design Games Like a Pro!

Discover the process of creating a video game – brainstorming, planning, character design, level design, programming, user interface design and much more! After learning the graphical user interface in GameMaker™ Studio, you will begin to plan your game by crafting a storyline and developing characters using the advanced, built-in, digital painting software. Once your characters are created, you will learn about level design and lay out floor plans with an easy-to-use, efficient tiling technique that allows for excellent control and precision. After establishing the basic visuals, you will program the character movement and interactions within your game. Offering a vast database of game design concepts, and sharp graphics, GameMaker is a great step towards professional level design and an even bigger step towards top-level creativity and innovation!

Valuable Learning Opportunities include creating an incredible look, feel, and appeal for a game, working with professional level software, and boosting your coding skills!
