Mobile games reach billions of players because they’re designed for touch screens and on-the-go play. Creating games for phones and tablets teaches how to build intuitive touch controls and optimize performance for devices people carry everywhere, transforming ideas into games that work in players’ hands rather than only at a desk.
Innovators will build and program their own mobile games, learning to code touch-responsive controls and create experiences optimized for phones and tablets. Students develop game creation skills while discovering how to design for small screens, implement swipe and tap mechanics, and make games that feel natural on mobile devices. Their ProjectFUN game runs on actual phones and tablets, so they can share these polished, playable experiences with friends and family.
Projects in this workshop may include: Creating an endless runner game prototype or creating an adventure game with collectibles

- As with every Open World workshop, a special visit by an industry guest has been arranged to help students see the connection between their workshop and real-world careers.
I like having the opportunity to learn more skills to apply to my art.
