Minecraft Modding: Winter Solstice

For students in grades 2-6 | Cost: $299/week
Register

The classic and most popular PlanetBravo course for almost a decade is back for a wonderful winter theme this break. Campers in this course reinvent Minecraft to make it their own winter wonderland. Instead of just playing Minecraft, they are editing the code and innerworkings of the game to modify (mod) how it works. Campers make their own recipes, blocks, items, potions, biomes, and so much more. This is one of the most creative hobbyist classes that PlanetBravo offers. Fun for newbies and also for veteran campers. There is always something new to create behind the scenes for Minecraft.

No prior experience needed.

Roblox Game Design: Holly Jolly Obby

For students in grades 3-8 | Cost: $299/week
Register

While the title of this course implies the students are playing the popular sandbox game Roblox here, they are actually making their very own Roblox Obby using Roblox Studio. This is a tool that allows non-coders (and coders) to professionally make their own video game. Yes, the game is a Roblox game, but all of the pro tools such as Lua scripting, 3D model editing and more are included. This is a great entry-level course into the career of computer game design.

Lua Coding: Reindeer Games

For students in grades 3-8 | Cost: $299/week
Register

Lua is one of the world's most versatile and accessible programming languages, and PlanetBravo is introducing students to this popular code. With any experience (in Python, JavaScript, or Roby), or no experience at all, Lua is a perfect coding language to begin now. Campers begin by making simple text-based Lua games for computers. These games range from an AI chat program, to Mad Libs, to Trivia, to Random Number Guessers. The important thing to know is that students here not only use Lua code, but they can read the language and craft numerous programs with it for free, too. This is a must-take course if your child ever expressed interest in how games and programs get made.
