For the second summer, Mankato’s Community Education and Recreation Department is hosting a week-long video-game making class for kids 10 and older. The course was created by Michigan-based education organization All About Learning, whose goal is to use technology to stimulate math and science achievement.
Students in the course spend five mornings building several different video games. The software allows students to control every aspect of their creations, from characters and villains to scoring and restarts. Students can add sound effects and multiple levels, and they can even program their own in-game cheats and secrets.
