What is UNITY?
Unity is a leading game engine used by professionals worldwide to create interactive experiences across various platforms, including mobile, console, and VR. It's the technology behind many popular games and applications.
+ VR
At Code-it Hacks, we introduce kids to Unity in a way that's both fun and educational. Our program focuses on teaching the fundamentals of game development, enabling young learners to design and build their own games from scratch.
Unity is the world’s leading game development engine — powering everything from indie hits to AAA blockbusters across mobile, console, and now, virtual reality (VR).
In our Unity Game Development for Kids program, students go behind the scenes of their favorite games. They don’t just play — they create:
-
Build interactive 2D and 3D worlds
-
Code player actions, challenges, and scoring
-
Design environments, characters, and stories
-
See their imagination come to life — and play it!
Unity gives kids access to the same professional tools used by developers at companies like Ubisoft, EA, and Blizzard — only in a fun, kid-friendly learning environment.
Why Kids Love UNITY (and Why That’s a Good Thing)
EXPRESS CREATIVITY
Design unique game worlds and characters.
Tools to be creators, not just consumers
Playgrounds for creativity
and problem-solving
Kids control how worlds are made, how stories unfold, and how players interact.
They experience the instant thrill of bringing characters and ideas to life.
On Their own Terms..
They use problem-solving and creativity at every step, balancing coding, logic, art, and design.
Unity taps into what kids love most: creation, challenge, and adventure — on their terms.
“Unity empowers kids to transform their ideas into interactive experiences, fostering both creativity and technical skills.”
Now imagine NOT just building a game — but stepping inside it.
