3D Game Design - Developer

I cannot speak highly enough about FunTech. What an absolutely awesome company that helps children and teens with coding and tech.

They have a range of courses (although you have to book early) that I wish I had when I was younger. But my ten year old daughter joined for a two week's session on 3D Game Designing using Unreal Engine over the summer and she loved it.

She has been learning python coding since she was six so it was nice for her to do something different. And even though she had a wobble in the middle of the course, the company was absolutely fantastic and supported her with some one to one private lessons to get her to the end.

My daughter wrote: "To Connor. Thank you for giving me 1 to 1s to help me understand Unreal Engine. I really appreciate it. I am really happy with the end result of my game and I am hoping to add many more levels and upgrade my current ones to make my game way more interesting."

@Sheineez Barber I applaud you for setting up such an awesome company and excellent customer service.

As a result, I have shared with many friends and I will book Georgie onto her next course soon and every year from here on. 10 out of 10...

I couldn't recommend this company highly enough.

Fun and educational with great tutor support

Felix had a brilliant time on the Minecraft Mod course. He'd never done anything like this before and we were a bit worried that it would be too much for him or not engaging enough to keep him seated but he was up at the crack of dawn every morning raring to go.

The course was well structured, age appropriate, and when things got a bit confusing his tutor was quick to reassure and help. When he accidentally deleted everything he'd created his tutor went above and beyond to recover his work for him which was much appreciated.

Felix learnt a lot, gained new confidence in creating his own characters, blocks and objects in Minecraft and has been using all his screen time since making more.

Many thanks for a great couple of weeks.

I made a huge exploration game which was so large it sometimes crashed my laptop! Overall, it was a great learning experience and I'd like to thank my instructor and FunTech for making this happen!

Funtech Course Review.

I have learnt many new things about Unreal Engine. I learned how to make moving floors and today we are making our own obstacle courses. I think I will do one of these courses again as I really enjoy this.

Java course

This Java course has been absolutely amazing over these past 2 weeks. We have been able to learn so much in such little time. Furthermore, we have made good friends with other people and helped each other. Everyone loves to help others and is very encouraging. Overall, I have really enjoyed this ...

Very good.

It was very fun. I learnt a lot about the unreal engine. How everything works and I understood blueprints way better. As the days went on it got more interesting, because I knew more about the engine.

3d game desighn

the first lesson was hard but all the others were very fun and I learnt lots of new things from it

Amazing course, loads of fun

I had a great time when doing this course, i learnt loads and got familiar with using unreal engine

The course has been amazing and the teacher/tutor explained everything very clearly funtech over my experiance of my time as been exhilarating and i have enjoyed every bit of it. It was easy making freinds.
Despite the tutoring bieng online making freinds was suprisingly easy.
In my opinion the course is most certainly worth it and highly recommended.
The teacher Kevin was amasing he was so energetic and helpful towards our needs and the help of the understanding of the code.
If you ever get the chance to be with these amazing people I would 100% do the course.
I want to thank FunTech for everything and if I were to rate the course I would definitely rate it out of 10 a 1,000 out of.
This course has definitley inspired me to carry on coding.
This was a life changing experience for me and I can now understand code to be able to code mostly anything.

Very fun I enjoyed it a lot.
Obviously this is different from the first level which made it a lot more worthwhile since I have gotten better and I think this is an efficient way to learn as a group as we can learn from other people's problems.
Also the tutors are nice and the class sizes are just about right which enables a good learning experience for everyone. Since there are so many courses most people are on about the same level.
The units are set in a good order where the things we have covered before can be used in the current unit, which is helpful as we can look back to see our previous codes to refresh our memory.
One thing that can be an improvement though is that sometimes the course goes a bit fast for some of our likings (not for me).
So overall a very good course.

Felix's Review

It was awsome!
My faviourate part about the course was being able to create my own custom dimentions!

Tegan Davey Review

I learnt a lot. It was great because it wasn't always the same. There were questions, programs to make, programs to fix and lots of choices. This meant that, by the end, we could use everything to make something really run. Everyone was really nice and the whole thing was really friendly.

very good

i loved it helped me make amazing games and items :)

Luke's review

Amazing job! This was great! No complaints :) my fav part of the course was making tools, armour and ores. I figured out how to make ores generate on my own in my free time! so that's even better! I learn how to do a texture for a bow and how to make weapons even ranged!

FunTech

FunTech was a very fun experience for me, and I learned a lot on new things and my skill to code has improved a lot, and The Tutor was very nice and always helped when I needed help. Overall A very fun experience and I Highly recommend it.

Harry's review

over the couple weeks I found mods harder but I loved what kind of mods I made like entitys dimentions and biomes but I have been looking forward too the mod packs and I now can make them so thankyou for teatching me!

Learning coding can be pretty hard, however this series of 3hr lessons was very worth it and taught me a lot about indie game development. I've put a lot of planning into becoming a game developer and this was a huge step. Our tutor also helped us when there was debugging needed or we couldn't find something in a specific area. Overall, I highly recommend these coding lessons.

My thoughts on the Indie Game summer camp

This course has been an amazing and helpful experience, the tutor has been extremely helpful and encouraging and explained very confusing topics in an amazing way. The exercises were well designed for the given topic and the videos were very helpful and informational. If I had to change one thing I would decrease the amount of tkinter used but overall I loved it especially with such an amazing tutor.

It was great. i loved all of it exept for the first lesson where everything you were telling me i allready knew. my favourite bit was learning things i did not know allready and my favourite thing i did not know was that you can make characters green. i am very sad that it has to stop now and on a sad scale of 1 to 10 i am at 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000063542654 right now. i will probably sign up next year if my family has enough time. i loved being able to meet people from all round the world on video call.
