Hello, boys and girls. I’m Miss Baker. I will introduce a great summer course to you. It’s for the students who are interested in computer games. But you won’t be playing computer games. You will learn how to design them.
You will get the opportunity to learn from two famous computer game designers. They are Sam Gates and Daniel Stone from the company Starry Games. You will learn how to use different computer programs and create computer games by yourself.
