Hi. I want to get my little cousins into computers, and since they’re kids, making games are really fun for them. I made a game with them with Love2D and they had a blast (I put their faces on the characters) but I think Love2d is a bit too hard for them.

My main motive for them is to make something and be creative. Programming is just a tool for that.
So something simpler with less code and mental load that let’s them create stuff more simply is good.

What do you guys suggest?

    I’ve always found it weird that Arduino has its own language. On top of it, it’s not a really well designed one in the sense that it does not follow a simple paradigm where there are few basic fundamentals and from there it’s only vocabulary.
