[vet-it] GameMaker for beginners

[Roland Gesthuizen]

GAMEMAKER FOR BEGINNERS
Professional Development for Primary and Secondary Teachers
Westall Secondary College, Clayton South, Victoria
Tuesday 26 September 4:30pm to 7:30pm

Gamemaker www.gamemaker.nl<http://www.freewebs.com/schoolgamemaker/www.gamemaker.nl>is
a freeware programming language, though voluntary registration of
$18US
is encouraged. Because it is free, it can be used at home and at school. Its
simple drag & drop interface is suitable down to year 3 but through its
powerful scripting language, it is suitable to year 12 and beyond. With
Gamemaker you can easily create games such as top view, platform games,
first person shooters, 3D and networked multiplayer games. It is a fully
fledged programming language capable of non game applications such as
physics simulations and databases.

Participants at this workshop will work together at their own pace to create
and take away their very own, fully functional game.
