Over the course of five days, students get an introduction to game design and Roblox Studio. Campers express creativity and unleash their inner game designer by designing their own Roblox games. 

Throughout the week, instructors work with campers to help them create amazing Roblox experiences that they can share with their friends. Kids also learn how to enhance their world using Lua scripting.
