Bloxels

I've been trialing a fun new game that enables kids to explore both sides of their brain (the creative and the analytical) by expressing themselves and learning through the process of making video games. I've created an Educator account which has a free 30 day trial. Bloxels EDU resources encourage collaboration while guiding students through a design thinking process. Using the Bloxels gameboard and blocks, students create their own 13-bit layouts, characters, and art for their game. In the app, they can edit and customize everything - what it looks like and how elements interact and behave. Students have the power to create rich, dynamic stories with their games. They can use Story blocks to tell narratives, build logic puzzles with Action blocks and transform their characters with Power-ups. Check out this short video! ---> Digital Storytelling with Bloxels
