Making games is cool, but isn’t it really hard? Not with Shaun’s Game Academy!
Closing Date: 19th December 2014
Shaun’s Game Academy is a free resource designed for children which will help you make your very own Shaun the Sheep game. Using a tool called Scratch, kids have access to an official suite of characters, backgrounds and effects from the Shaun the Sheep world to create exciting games. Along the way, and with the help of industry experts, you get to learn the basics of coding and game development in a fun and easy to understand way!
Once you have made a cool Shaun game, be sure to enter it into the competition to win some awesome prizes!
Computer coding is becoming a key aspect of the National Curriculum in 2014 and Shaun’s Game Academy has been launched to help children, teachers and families get a (woolly) leg up with these new skills. Come on you lot, let’s make fun!
