That doesn’t seem like the union is unioning properly at all here.

Is there something going on that this article isn’t surfacing, or did UPS just buy the union bosses?

Thanks for the suggesting.

She likes Roblox, but I haven’t check out the build tools at all.

And yeah…the monetization is…troubling.

Well, Reddit isn’t in my good books right now, but I hope they fight this fight hard, and I hope they win. Good Luck Reddit

You’re not alone on TotK. I’m still working on it too. Been taking my time to enjoy it, and the number of hours of gaming time isn’t what it once was.

Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll do some reading on it. Never worked with Lua before. Maybe Dad gets to learn too!

Thanks so much for the thoughtful reply. I’ll do some reading on those.

QBasic - what a blast from the past! I also started on basic. My favorite was a “snake” game I had made.

That’s pretty cool. Definitely going to dig into that. I didn’t realize how well developed it was.

Hello Everyone,

I’ve got a 10 year old daughter who loves making games in scratch, but she’s starting to run into that boundary where it stops working for you, and starts working against you.

She wants to make an adventure game in the vein of a trimmed down “legend of Zelda: link to the past”

I’ve looked at snap and gamefroot as potential next steps. Would consider a “true” language like JavaScript or python, but I’m worried she would be daunted if the ramp is too steep (maybe with the correct libraries/frameworks?) The immediate feedback and low ramp scratch offers are still important.

Anyone have any wisdom to share? Or point me to something I’ve missed?

Thanks

I haven’t had the heart to delete it yet, but I’m also pretty much done with Reddit.

I checked it out on desktop today. Top 8 hits in 4 of my favorite subs were busted bot reposts. It was a short visit.
