I'm on the loops now. interesting gaming concept ### 5/5 — Absolutamente fantástico *2022-10-24* Ensina programação para crianças de forma implícita e divertida. ### 2/5 — More levels *2022-10-22* I like it but it needs more levels ### 5/5 — Don't use for mac *2022-01-01* Doesn't work on mac ### 1/5 — Lixooo *2021-11-19* Bom ### 3/5 — This game is fine *2021-10-31* I’ve been Coding a while, and I wanted to code on my phone. so I downloaded a different coding game. It was money so decide to download this one, but The second one you get stuck. then if you leave and come back you can go to the third level, but that one has problems too. because you can only get four of the blob things and you need five do you need 15 of the blob things to pass to the next level but you can only get 12! with all the errors in the game. and the places where there’s walls where there’s not supposed to be so you can’t go through to the next level! So it’s a good game but they should probably fix all of the errors and then this game would be great This is what makes me feel right now though:😠😡😞☹️ ## Frequently asked questions about SpriteBox ### What is SpriteBox: Code Hour?
