Section 1
The big idea
You can build a small game with AI's help in less time than it takes to watch a movie. The trick: start small, follow steps, and ask AI to explain anything you do not understand.
Some examples
- Start with: a simple 'click the moving target' game.
- Or: a 'guess my number' game where the player guesses 1-10.
- Or: a 'rock paper scissors' game against the computer.
- Or: a 'find the hidden treasure' map game with arrow keys.
Try it!
With a grown-up, pick one game idea above. Ask AI: 'Walk me through making this game step by step. Explain like I am 10.' See how far you get in 30 minutes.
