Join us these school holidays for online workshops in game coding and design in Microsoft Kodu Game Lab!
What is Kodu?
Kodu lets kids create games on the PC and Xbox via a simple visual programming language. Kodu can be used to teach creativity, problem-solving, storytelling, as well as programming. Anyone can use Kodu to make a game, young children as well as adults with no design or programming skills.
