Lesson 5 — Project: My Own Game

Level: Warrior — roughly Grade 8 / ages 13–14 Duration: 40–60 minutes Format: A build-your-own-game project in the browser Concept: Real game making starts with rules, then code, then testing with real players

Learning Objective

Kids design their own rules, code a complete loop (control, score, end), and improve it from real playtest feedback.

Do It Together (Parent-Child Co-participation)

Hold a mini arcade night: everyone at home plays one round while your child notes where people get stuck — then fixes one of those things.
