I'm going to download these and have a play. Fantastic work folks, I hope you enjoyed your foray into programming and game creation. I was 13 when I started writing games and 18 when my first one was published so you're already way ahead of me. Ultimately, it led to a career in software development and I now write software for fruit machines and arcade machines professionally. Maybe some of you will go on to have successful careers in software development. As for debugging, you have my sympathy. It's probably the worst aspect of coding but I promise the more programming you do, the easier it gets. Computers don't think, they only follow your instructions so you have to think for them. Thank you for using AGD and if you have any ideas for improvements do let me know.

Hi Jonathan,
I am delighted you have come across our little project. I'd like to say a massive thank you from myself and every member of our class for creating such a wonderful platform for us to create our own games on. We have learned so much from the experience and now have a deeper understanding of both coding and game development. We have used computational thinking skills to solve problems and have created something we are really proud of. Moreover, we now have a whole host of transferable skills which we can apply in our future pursuits whether that be in coding or using a logical approach to tackling challenges in life in general.
Thank you for the kind words, they are much appreciated,
Mr M :)
