Codeverse Presents: How Your Favorite Games Were Made

About Codeverse

Codeverse is an award-winning learn-to-code platform that enables kids to build video games using KidScript®. KidScript is a real, written programming language that draws inspiration from languages such as JavaScript, Ruby and Python. It features an easy-to-learn syntax that gives kids the opportunity to see their creations come to life in real-time as they type. It’s simple enough that beginners can easily get started and learn as they go, yet powerful enough to create complex apps and games. By creating, playing, and iterating on video games, kids learn core coding principles while having a lot of fun doing it. Codeverse access is available for free to all Varsity Tutors Learning Members, enabling learners to code and play games on their own schedule, choose from educational missions, and join live camps and classes for expert instruction.

About the class

The world’s favorite video games, from Pong to Pac-Man and Frogger to Fortnite, all have one thing in common: they were designed and coded by people just like you. And in this class you’ll learn how, as you deconstruct the game design of favorite games, see how the most memorable components were coded, and learn how you can take that template and build the world’s next favorite video game. Join expert Codeverse guide Andres Rivera to break iconic games down to their code and learn how to build upon them yourself.
