First Godot Game
Build and customize a dodge game.
Godot: Make Your First Game in One Class
A single class for ages 10 to 15. Children build a tiny dodge-the-enemies game in the free Godot engine and get a taste of real game development.
Class Experience
The teacher builds the game step by step: a player that follows the mouse, enemies that fall from the top and a game-over when they touch. Children follow along and then change speeds, colors and sizes to make it their own.
How classes work
This is a single 55-minute live class with up to 5 learners. The teacher demonstrates, learners take part, and everyone shares at the end.

Meet your Instructor
This educator taught an air mass, meteorology, and weather pattern unit in seventh-grade life science for six years and specializes in hands-on, discovery-based learning. Lessons prioritize outdoor observation and student-led investigation so learners actively discover scientific principles instead of passively receiving information. Favorite units use engineering design challenges to explore biological concepts like seed dispersal, encouraging hypothesis testing, iterative design, and collaborative reflection to build scientific thinking and problem-solving skills.
