#Kids Game Developers Wannabe
In partnership with Now.I.Decide.eu and our friends from Nicolae Iorga School and PATRIR (Peace Action Training and Research Institute of Romania) we organized a 2h workshop for kids who dream about becoming a game developer. Together we played in Scratch and Kodu and talked about the history of video games industry and technologies.
They want to become game developers in the nearby future and they promised to show us their progress.
