Kids love playing video games. However, the long hours spent on the screens have been a major area of concern for parents. With this course, kids can now channel their love for gaming in a constructive way by creating games. Creating a 3D game requires a high level of visualization and builds problem-solving skills. It fires up children’s imagination as they build the entire scenario in which the game is to be played. The player-world interaction as per the game rules and scoring mechanisms are then overlaid on top of it.
“Roblox is a unique course, as it activates both the left and right hemispheres of the brain. In addition to coding and logical thinking skills of the left brain, it involves creative thinking and spatial visualization triggering a high degree of right brain activity”, said Rajat Dhariwal, Chief Product Officer of PurpleTutor.
PurpleTutor’s curriculum design is done completely in-house with proprietary learning frameworks. It prides itself on creating original content & projects. The course was in development for the last 4 months and after rigorous testing, it has now been launched globally. It has garnered positive feedback.

It bolsters our portfolio of courses such as Data Science, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, and upcoming courses on Virtual Reality, Cybersecurity and Ethical Hacking”, said Yatish Gupta, CTO of PurpleTutor.
