Draw a game, take a picture and watch it come to life! Children loved to see their own designs and ideas turn into a video game they can play and share. The colour coded pens make the process simple to learn and the easy to understand instructions mean that older children don’t require much assistance at all. The books come in levels which allows children to work through the stages at a steady pace. Starting with simple game designs and progressing onto more detailed and difficult ones. The app also has a gaming area called Pixicade arcade where users submit games for others to play.
