Escape Room Design
Four days — February Vacation 2021 POSTPONED
Solving puzzles can be a satisfying experience, but so can making your own! In this workshop, you will learn the basics of creating code and digital art to make your own Digital Escape Room game using Scratch, similar to escape rooms you might visit in real life. Scratch is a coding language that allows you to create your own interactive stories, games, and animations. This workshop will help you think about how to create an immersive audience experience through your use of puzzles, imagery, and association skills. Please pack a peanut-free snack, lunch, and drink daily.
Update: Due to the recent restrictions by Massachusetts Governor Baker’s office because of the increased spread of COVID-19, and to ensure everyone’s safety, this workshop will be given in an online format via Zoom. Registered students will be emailed a link to the virtual workshop.
