📌 Course Overview

The Game Development Course is specially designed for school students (Grades 4–10) who want to learn coding in a fun, creative, and practical way. In this course, students will design and develop their own games such as racing games, shooting games, puzzle games, platform games, and more.

This program focuses on building strong logical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills while introducing students to real-world programming concepts.

Students will progress step-by-step from beginner level to creating fully functional 2D games.
