What are your favourite phone games to play? Have you ever come up with a new idea of your own?
Join us to make YOUR OWN game that can be played on a phone or computer! Younger participants will be making an animal game with bunnies, carrots to capture, and foxes to escape! Older participants will be making BuzzFeed style quiz games to test friends and family! Coding will be in a JavaScript drag-and-drop platform. All coding levels welcome; no previous coding experience required.
