Video Gamemaker camp

My son decided it would be a good idea to find out how video games are made. So he signed up for a summer camp through Gwinnett county that would give him the basics. His comment was that "it's hard enough" just doing the tutorial. He has, though, decided he enjoyed it regardless. I see us doing the same camp again next year, or him signing up for the robotics camp if he's allowed. Hard to believe my first born is old enough to be interested in the MAKING of these things, not just playing with them.
