v Recessu (online klub pro děcka) najali profi game-designérku Kirsten, která zase posunula způsob práce s dětma, měli první víkendový jam, během kterého děti nakódily svoje platformery za pomoci AI chatbota. Kdyby někdo pořád váhal, zda na to poslat dítě :)
A quick review of the event: On Friday, June 14th, we announced the theme for the Jam: build a platformer! The only requirement: a jump. We gave participants two template Jippity projects to start from, or they could build their own game from scratch. They took just three days — Friday to Sunday — to build and submit their games. Jacob (Jippity mentor) and I hosted office hours over the weekend, free to all to ask questions, get feedback, debug code, and just hang out while building.
The submissions came out amazing.
