Youth Education
Ever since Minecraft, survival games have become a booming genre, with titles like Subnautica, ARK: Survival Evolved, and LEGO Fortnite leading the way. Using Unreal Engine, this course will guide students in creating their own landscape filled with harsh weather and dangerous enemies.

With the help of Utah Games graduates, students will ensure their game delivers the ultimate survival experience. Co-sponsored with Utah Division of Games.
