How to make your game

  1. 1Press Play Game and tap or click to jump.
  2. 2Open the Level Editor and place blocks and spikes.
  3. 3Play your level, find the jump that is too hard, and fix it.

What your child practises

  • Designing a level, testing it and fixing what does not work
  • Timing and spacing: where a jump has to start to clear a spike
  • Balancing difficulty so a level is hard but fair

A tip for parents and teachers

Ask your child to build a level you can finish on your third try, not your first or your tenth. Getting that balance right is real game design.
