Game Creator Game
I'm amused. I've had a note in my notebook to look at the Game Creator game on Cartoon Network's site ever since Alice Kahn mentioned it at the Sandbox Summit in September. I finally just took a peek. It's pretty well thought out!
I make games for kids, I play games (mostly for kids), and I write about games (as well as some other stuff, again, mostly for kids). I'm also working on my dissertation on kids and games. Throw that all together, and I hope this will become a moderately interesting adventure about kids, games, technology, education, and research.
