What I wonder is: why has nobody noticed that code editors lack a concept of 0? When you're writing code, you can express any concept except that of an unfilled hole. We've rearranged every part of the coding process in a twisted-up way, all for the lack of a way to express lack. If you want to be more clear about what I mean, look to tools which can express holes like https://scratch.mit.edu and https://hazel.org. - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

The average house in the UK now has 1.3 laptops. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/apr/09/online-all-the-time-average-british-household-owns-74-internet-devices A windows laptop from today is vastly easier to code on that a C64 or whatever. Most houses would have an internet connection as well so they can get to all sorts of things. A Raspberry Pi is probably something richer kids get to play with. Have... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

My 2c from lots of remote math tutoring, and one coding-for-fun middle school student: - student motivation is everything. Hard to motivate thru a screen and with cameras off. Hard to keep them engaged or recognize if they're engaged. Less of an issue with adult students. - reduce friction for students as much as possible. Ideally one web tool, zero installs. Prefer tools with few failure modes, and have fallbacks... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
A few years ago I took a class of middle schoolers through a simple game dev course and rarely have I seen a group of kids so motivated. Using microStudio[1] they built the story, art, music, gameplay, and levels - I only helped a bit with the code. They kept asking about it long afterwards, so I eventually threw it up on a static site: http://uprag.quest (warning - flashy jump scares) [1] https://microstudio.dev. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
Let The Letter Drop is a mix of crosswords, Connect4, Tetris, and a little bit of Wordle's daily-ness. Select letters from your tray and drop them on a board to build words and score points. Multi-letter pieces can be rotated. Use special pieces like bombs and bumpers to move the letters on your board around. Every day, everyone gets a fixed bag of letters and a set of words to make. Make all 3 and keep going for... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago
I'm not sure how this reduces the barrier to game developement. There are already lots of free assets and game engines designed for making arcade games that are a lot easier then say Unity or Unreal. Like https://arcade.makecode.com/ or https://microstudio.dev/ or https://scratch.mit.edu/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago
MicroStudio is a free, open source game engine (MIT License), available online at https://microstudio.dev or as an offline application here: https://microstudio.itch.io/microstudio. Source: almost 4 years ago
If you have the time, give it a try. Maybe visit micro studio and follow their tutorial which runs in the browser. That can give you a little taste of both programming and game dev. Source: about 4 years ago
