Game AI Creators: Building Smart NPCs in Roblox Winter 2026

Game AI Creators: Building Smart NPCs in Roblox Winter 2026

Students will dive into Roblox Studio to explore the power of artificial intelligence in video games. From enemies that chase and patrol to adaptive NPCs that respond to players, participants will learn how AI makes games more challenging, fun, and realistic. Through a mix of interactive lessons and hands-on projects, students will practice coding in Lua, design AI-driven characters, and create their own playable Roblox experiences. The bootcamp is designed for learners of all skill levels, with younger students focusing on simple AI logic and older students diving deeper into decision-making systems like finite state machines. By the end of the program, each participant will showcase their unique project, leaving with new coding skills, confidence, and a portfolio piece to share.
