GAME DESIGN WORKSHOPS
| Are you a budding game designer aged 10–15? Join our exciting Game Design Workshop on Saturday morning! Each month explores a new theme, from Scratch game design and Python programming to 3D printing – giving creative minds plenty of opportunities to learn, build, and have fun. March 2026 – Build Your Own Escape Room Game in Python May 2026 – 3D printing workshop 2026 Workshop Times:
We’re moving beyond simple scripts to create text-based adventures filled with secret passwords, logic puzzles, and hidden inventory systems. Are you ready to build a game that will stump your friends and family?
*** You must have a basic knowledge of Python to take part *** .
Ages: 12-15
Designers will learn the basics of 3d designing before being taught how designs are 3d printed, with our very own 3d printer. Over the three sessions, everyone will work towards designing and 3d printing their own keyring designs that they can take home.
Ages: 8 - 12 |
| We also collaborate with game design studios and developers to test new games and provide valuable feedback. If you’d like our workshop to test your game and share our insights, feel free to reach out here. |
