Coda Game is a game built out of children’s own desires to change stuff in their favorite apps and games. We decided to let them be creators themselves and own their games that they can build with visual code blocks. The limited use of text enables you to start creating right away. You will learn about commands and game mechanics such as gravity, adding enemies, speed, point systems and much more. Depending on how you want the commands to act in the game, you can easily drag and drop them to triggers such as “when start”, “when pass obstacle”, “when hit enemy” etc. In just a few easy steps - you will have your unique game that you can share with family, friends and in the classroom. SHARE AND EXPLORE! Our secure community is an “app store” for games built by kids. Here you can share games, collect hearts and save your favorite games. You can also get inspired for your next creation by playing other friend’s games. This is what you get: - Create an unlimited number of games and share them with the world - Explore, play and like your friends’ games - Create games in three completely different game-modes - Combine crazy commands and tricky triggers to create your own unique games - 68 commands such as Flip Gravity, Create Monsters, Timer and many more. - 37 triggers to create your own rules - 70+ graphical assets to make your game look stunning - 8 sound effects like farts, laser and sparkle You will learn: - Problem solving - Logic - Computational Thinking - Creativity - Game Design & Game Development - Pattern Recognition - Algorithmic Thinking - Basic intro to STEAM subjects Supported Languages: - English - Spanish - Swedish
