Minecraft is a game of endless creativity and self expression through what we choose to build and craft. This Track focuses on expanding our creative toolkit by learning about the advanced features of Minecraft meant for map makers / content creators with blocks, items, commands and building techniques not present during normal gameplay and using outside applications to expand what’s possible. Create adventure maps, challenges, mini games and customize the games art with resource packs.

Model custom items and weapons and animate textures. Learn the foundations of pixel art and video game graphic design. There are infinite possibilities when you are the art director for your own version of Minecraft.
