Our Game Needs You

Easy, fun and educational

CodeMe Creator lets children create their own 2D platform games simply by selecting items from the menu and adding them to the game area. Children are also introduced to the concept of variables in games; by changing properties such as speed, strength and damage they can affect how easy or difficult each section of their game will be.

Designed with all children in mind

CodeMe Creator aims to be accessible to as many players as possible. Many elements of the game have been designed and tested by students with a variety of special needs. Our experience of co-designing the game with this team of students is contributing towards research being carried out as part of the EDUCATE training programme. Read our success story on the EDUCATE website.

Supporting Education in Bangladesh

CodeMe Creator is also helping underprivileged young people in Bangladesh with training and employment opportunities. Much of the artwork for the game is being drawn by students from Computers Are Free For Everyone, a charity that provides free of cost training in coding, web development and graphic design. The younger students are also involved in testing the game during developement, as well as creating levels.

So how does it work?

Record Breaking Attempt

Mobirise

Going for a world record

Later on this year we will attempt to break the world record for the longest video game marathon by playing CodeMe Creator. The current record stands at 138 hours 34 seconds. That's why we need as many user created levels as possible to make this challenge more interesting!

If you would like to donate to support this marathon game challenge you are more than welcome. All funds raised will go towards building a permanent school for the CAFFE students.

Benefits for Schools

CodeMe creator fulfils a number of aims of the
Key Stage 1 & 2 computing curriculum
for England and Wales. 

1

Computing Skills

Building a level encourages logic reasoning; working with variables; correcting errors as well as developing creativity and problem-solving techniques.

2

Developing Empathy

To build a level, children need to show empathy and understanding for another player’s point of view. If they make a level too difficult or too easy, the player will lose interest.

3

Global Citizenship

Children will be part of a gloabl project. They will create levels that could be played by anyone in the world. At the same time, they will also be helping to build a school for children in Bangladesh.

School visits

Luke Doyle, the lead developer of CodeMe Creator and co-founder of CAFFE is more than willing to visit your school to speak to children about the project as well as guide classes through creating their first levels. There is no charge for the visit although a contribution towards travel expenses would be welcome.
