Description

In this imaginative and hands-on course, secondary school students will step into the shoes of a game designer and digital storyteller. Using the Bloxels platform, they will learn how to combine pixel art, level design, and storytelling to build their own space-themed games. The course guides students through the entire design process—from conceiving storylines and developing characters to designing interactive environments and managing game balance. As they experiment with map layouts, enemy placement, and level difficulty, students also gain insights into the teamwork and creative planning that drive real-world game development. This class emphasizes the artistic side of STEM, allowing learners to express their creativity while enhancing visual literacy, problem-solving, and narrative thinking. Students should bring their own tablets or computers to participate fully in the activities. Ideal for curious minds interested in gaming, design, or digital art, this course turns imagination into interactive reality.
