BUILD, CODE, AND CREATE

Future Stars Minecraft & Roblox Developers Camp is a fun and engaging way for children and teens to learn coding, engineering, and game design using platforms they already love. Minecraft and Roblox are increasingly used as educational tools, and this camp taps into their creative power to help campers learn more effectively through hands-on exploration.

Campers will learn to code Minecraft mods and build Roblox games using Code Kingdom. Working through an interactive game creation course, they follow a coding journey at their own pace. From creating 3D models and learning real Java code to building Obbies and launching their own Tycoon Game, campers will experience the perfect blend of education and play.

Each week features new projects, cooperative challenges, and friendly competitions. Programs take place in collegiate classrooms and computer labs with all necessary equipment provided. Recreational games and daily swim activities provide a balanced day of learning and fun.
