    This is a very unique game that gives you the ability to create a game from scratch. Be sure to do the tutorials and you can get creative!

    Fun little tool to introduce programming logic, but abstracts a lot of the game dev process away. Would be great for kids or just to play around it, could be useful for small prototypes.

    Fun little creative tool/game. Could use some more features in my opinion but it is still pretty cool otherwise! Good for those who are wanting to make their own little game.

    Well worth $30. There is alot of other creations to play while also creating your own game. The programming is simple but limited. Fun to learn, apply and enjoy.

    This a great beginner's course into the world of gaming design. The tools are fun to use and easy to learn. Too simple overall, but my son loves it.

    My son loved it. He is only 5 years old so of course he needs help with reading the instructions but he is able to follow them easily.

    Visually-driven introduction to game development concepts. Accessible but powerful, clearly drawing on concepts perfected in Mario Maker.

    Easy to learn, this has so much potential. My only complaint is the lack of a hub for sharing games.

    I'm not the best at building things / creating but this is a lot of fun if you hop online you can explore everyone else's creations.
