EVENT

Students aged 12-17 are invited to join us this term break for a very special Game Development Workshop with the team from Catalyst Games, Bob’s Adventure!

Bob’s Adventure is a 2-day bootcamp style workshop that teaches participants how to use the Unity3D engine and the 3D modelling tool Blender. Participants are taught the fundamentals of game development including Programming, Art and Design. Help guide “Bob the Blob” through 3 environments complete with their own problem-solving challenges tailored to a guided learning experience that allows participants to use their creativity and deep dive into their interests whether it’s art, level design, programming or UI/UX.

📆 Tuesday 22 & Wednesday 23 April 2025 (must attend both days)
⏱️ Arrive by 9:45am each day for a 10:00am start. 2:45pm finish both days.
🥪 Students must provide their own lunch and snacks
💻 Students must bring their laptop (if you do not own a laptop, a limited number of loan devices will be available)
🎟️ $120 per student

This workshop is strictly limited to 20 places.

Catalyst Games is an independent games studio focused on challenging the status quo and breaking down barriers to industry, creating small cozy game titles, facilitating game development workshops and making educational content for online platforms.

The workshop is broken down into 2-hour segments across the 2 days with a lunch break in the middle of each day. It is expected that the first level and most of the 2nd level is completed on the first day, giving the participants more time to work on their own levels on the second day with a brief refresher and the skills they’ve just learnt. Participants will receive a copy of their game onto a USB at the end of the two-day workshop, a certificate of participation, and a pdf of images they can take home, print out and use as stickers or badges.
