The week was great!

The week was great! Even though it was quite tiring the first two days I got used to it and it no longer felt tiring. I've learnt how to make my own 3d game and it was very interesting. It was also great fun when we played cards in the breaks. :)

Learnt 3D design

the camp was fun and I have learned a lot and I would recommend you to try FunTech, as it has been very good.

Went excellent

Very good all week. Learnt how to do 3-d game design.

Toby had a great time at the 3D games Design week, he enjoyed it a lot and had quite a decent game by the end of the week that he was reasonably pleased with – important to me, to know that he found some friends to play with in the breaks which was really key to making it much more interesting and stimulating.
We find coming to Barbican super convenient and the venue was great (maybe playground a bit small, but I didn’t actually see it?).
I did think maybe the more round table room layout you used to have at City Girls school was a bit better than the classroom lecture set up of the room, I am not sure Toby cared that much but I think he maybe got to know less people this time (?), he commented to me that all the helper/teachers were so very kind and lovely – this has always been the case and it really makes Funtech so good, so overall we absolutely love FunTech thank you.
I noticed only that we didn’t get a t shirt this time at the end. I wonder if you do ice breaker stuff at the start of the week with the kids in the break, maybe some outdoor games or learning each others names or something could make the group bond a bit more easily, Toby is pretty shy and it would possibly help him – he always gets to know the people sitting right next to him the best otherwise.
For Toby, he really is devoted to Minecraft and Redstone still, even though he is 13 – he would definitely come along if you ran a more grown up Minecraft course because he is now too old and has done them all, it looks like his options are to do something more like a coding course eg. Python as a 13 year old.
Many thanks and long may Funtech continue, we have been coming every year and went to everything we could think of so far, hopefully we can find a good course at Barbican again next summer!

Excellent

This was my son’s first Funtech course and he thoroughly enjoyed it. He learned a lot about game design and he’s now enrolled on another programming course. Definitely worth it !

Outstanding opportunity

Our 10 year old returned today from the 3D game design residency at Tonbridge School. His experience has been extraordinary. We have never seen him so enthused about the way in which computing can be used. The teachers have managed to combine his innate love of narrative with the complexities of Unreal Engine. He made a game - a real computer game! Remarkable. We were nervous about him going away and not knowing anyone there, but he has forged some great friendships in just a few days. The opportunity to do scuba diving in the evening and play dodge ball were also highlights. All in all, we haven't heard a negative word. And of course, he wants to go back next summer. Thanks so much to everyone at funtech, I am really grateful our child was able to have this experience and would book it again in a heartbeat.

This week was real fun. Even though the classes were [at first] a little boring, these last days just have been amazing. Our teachers were really cool and nice, and they explained the stuff so we could understand it easily.
In the residence I had really cool roommates, but it was sad that my friend Sofia had COVID so she couldn't come. Anyways, it was amazing with them. It was nice, too, that the last night like EVERYONE was on sugar rush so we were running through the residence like we were crazy. I'd definitely give this camp 11/10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Informative and fun course

I did 3D Game design and it was honestly really fun to learn. The Unreal Engine is a great thing, and I'd love for a 2nd part on this. Good Course, good tutor, good engine, pretty much everything was good.

Very enjoyable course

I feel that I learnt a lot in this course. I also feel that the tutors where very nice and very helpful. I would defiantly recommend this to a friend!

Amazing course

Amazing course with amazing teachers. I can now comfortably do semi-complex things with Unreal Engine.

3 D game design

My son really enjoyed his week of 3D game design. It went so quickly and he really looked forward to each day. He learnt a lot and ended the week with a brilliant game.

Virtual 3D gaming

My son loved this course, I was worried he might be a bit fed up at the end of the two weeks but he said it went by really quickly and he was completely engaged with every lesson.

We will be back for another course next holidays!

Excellent 3D Game Design Developer Course

My son liked the tutors and their teaching at their level. Thank you, FunTech team!

Initially, the group was too big with not enough trainers, which made it difficult to progress. One yp had special needs and was sometimes disruptive to the rest of the group. Would have been better to have additional trainers. That being said, course was still great. Thank you

FunTech 3D Game Design Holyport 05/08/22 Review.

Out of every summer camp that I've been to, FunTech was the best. The instructors were helpful, the equipment was great and my 3D Game Design course was absolutely amazing. I would definitely come here again.

3d games design course

it was really fun and i would want to carry this on, making parkour was my favourite part and would do anything do do it for a hole week

I liked this camp I would come back.

I enjoyed this camp a lot. I enjoyed this camp more than the others (Lego robotics, Minecraft redstone and Roblox game developer). The tutor was really nice and helpful.

Didn't start off well but ended up loving it

At the start of the week, I did not find this course very enjoyable. I found the software overly glitchy and complicated and the video tutorials were hard to follow.

At the start of the week, I did not find this course very enjoyable. I found the software overly glitchy and complicated and the video tutorials were hard to follow. In addition, it seemed like 3 groups had been merged as there were 19 people in our group and 3 tutors. However, on Day 3, our group was split in two and it was a lot better. Luckily, I was on the group with 2 tutors so all of my queries were answered quickly. Our tutors now paused and explained the tutorials as we went along which allowed me to learn more. My tutors were incredibly helpful and supportive. Overall, I have really enjoyed this week and have created a pretty good game

Tobys review

it was fun and i would come again if the minecraft cources allowed 14 year olds and 3dx was very fun as i have never made a good game before :)

learnt a lot!

It was very interesting but felt that it was quite a long day.

very happy with results

I have learnt a lot of useful skills to make games and so much more.

My amazing week

I learned a lot and hope to use Unreal in the future.

Didn't think I would learn so much is such a short time, really pleased.

It was very fun and I learned tons of things about Unreal Engine 4 in just a week! The teachers were really nice and supportive too! If anybody wanted to start using Unreal Engine they should go to this camp!

UE4

very cool, will recommend

Yellow is the best coler

You are all amazing and caring. I enjoyed learning how to teleport and make phrases pop up when you walk into a serten areas. you are funny and helpful thank you for helping me make 2 level. Yellow is the best coler and Purple is the second best. byeeeeeee

green is the best colour

I enjoyed how the tutors explained everything and how they helped students with all of the issues they had while keeping the class calm and focused.
I also enjoyed how the course was planned with all the basics first and how the more complicated things were later on, I enjoyed the pace of the videos where we had enough time to understand what it was explaining while still being able to repeat it with relative ease, I extremely enjoyed how we were able to use our creativity to make games while still following the course and getting help from the tutors, I apricated how the tutors were very knowledgeable about our topic and had every answer to every question.
