Build & Defend: Strategy Game Coding


Youth Activities (K-12 grade) / Summer Camps & Activities / Summer Day Camps / Science, Engineering & Technology -
Summer 2026

Get ready to take charge in this action-packed coding camp! Students will design and program their own Tower Defense–style game while learning the fundamentals of programming. Using Construct 3, a visual coding platform, they’ll explore how game frameworks work and practice coding concepts such as variables, events, conditions, and loops. Campers will create paths, position defensive towers, and program waves of enemies to challenge their defenses. Along the way, they will experiment with mechanics, adjust difficulty, and bring their games to life. Bring a USB on the last day to save your games. Presented by Tech Academy.
