Game Development-Beginner

Scratch is the best educational programming software for kids & teens available today. With Scratch, you can create games and interactive art projects all while having lots of fun!

Scratch is a project of the Scratch Foundation, in collaboration with the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab. It is available for free at https://scratch.mit.edu

In this course, you’ll learn to create your own game using Scratch. Instead of memorizing a list of programming concepts, you’re guided through making these games and picking up programming concepts on the way. The video guides follow the development of interesting game projects, along with additional content on debugging and experimenting with Scratch.

This course won’t make you a software engineer or app developer, but it can start the journey for you to become a game developer. By the end of this course, you’ll have a solid understanding of Game development in Scratch and its community of millions of users.
