What do students learn at this camp?

For current Minecraft gamers this will be super fun and highly educational camp as they discover how to change game functionality with code!

Understand how games are developed

• Gain insight to the architecture of a server hosted game like Minecraft.
• Learn what goes on in the development process of a game.

Code Minecraft mods

• Learn to code mods with both visual block coding and some Java ( a "mod" is a modification to the game).
• Create mods to change gameplay, mob behaviours and cause strange / funny / interesting / unexpected occurrences. Think exploding arrows, jumping 10 storeys high, spawning multi-coloured mobs, creating a custom PVP arena, parkour parks, custom commands and many more.
• Learn simple server admin.
• Deploy mods to the server. Enjoy modded game with friends.
