Unreal Engine 5 is a cutting-edge tool for creating some of the most exciting and visually impressive video games today. It’s been used to develop popular games like Fortnite, Final Fantasy VII Remake, and Rocket League. Even though it’s used by major studios, it’s also a fantastic tool for beginners who want to create their own games from scratch.
In this workshop, students will dive into Unreal Engine 5 to learn the basics of game design and development. They’ll create their own game environments, experiment with characters, and learn how to build interactive game elements. With step-by-step guidance, students will be able to bring their creative ideas to life using this powerful software.
By the end of the workshop, each student will have built their own game that they can continue refining and expanding at home.
Projects in this workshop may include: Developing an escape-room challenge game or building a first-person exploration game
[My son] rarely talks about what he does in a camp. So when he volunteered information at the end of each day I knew he was loving the camp. The small group allowed him to get to know some of his camp peers and his instructors really well. On the last day of camp, before I even asked his thoughts, he asked ‘do I have any more camps with DigiPen this summer?’ Then he immediately went on to say he wanted to sign up for a bunch of them next summer because he learned so much.
