Appening Rhondda: Astro Craze

Destroy alien invaders with this brand new Space Shooter game developed as part of Appening Rhondda.

Appening Rhondda is a collaborative approach between schools, charities and private businesses to foster IT development skills in Rhondda young people.

It was created from the partnership working of Stronger Rhondda, an initiative to bring people and groups in the Rhondda Valleys together to answer local needs. The project was established to address the growing concern that many students are not being challenged in technology development. We found many young people with naturally developed skills in coding and design lacked the opportunity to explore those interests before moving on to 6th form, college or the world of work.

How does it work?

A group of 5 young people come together for a full week to allow them an opportunity to work under the mentorship of professional app developers and create an app from start to finish. Show More
