Build a civilization and the intelligence that sustains it. Humanity’s future depends on the success of a Mars colony. Teens act as founders of Cosmic Enterprise, designing intelligent systems that manage resources, populations, and competing factions. Every system reacts to player decisions. Prosperity or collapse depends on how intelligently the colony is designed. In Cosmic Enterprise: Galactic Tycoon, teens in AI become system designers and simulation engineers, building a 3D VR space-themed tycoon game using Unity and C#. Campers will: - Get an introduction to game design using Unity VR - Ideate, research, and design your virtual realm - Coding fundamentals using C# - Identify game construct - Explore foundational AI systems used in simulation and strategy games, including: - Learn Rule-based decision systems - Learn NPC automation and behaviour logic - Feedback loops and system states - Adaptive responses to player actions - Simulation balancing and optimization
