Each game comes with challenges to take you to the next level of coding. Even includes mods to make your games more exciting. Have fun and amaze your friends and family! You’ll learn how to:

 
  • Use code to make a series of driving games including parking, racing, scrolling and two-player games.
  • Design your own game levels, cars and tracks.
