My daughter loves creating things — art, books, videos etc. She's shown an interest in learning to code, but she's only six, and I don't want learning to code to be a chore. So I've built visual scripting into her favourite game!

Overcooked is a co-op series that fundamentally requires the control of multiple characters to progress. I've kept multiplayer as an option, since teamwork is an important part of the game. However, I've replaced the 2nd player with a bot that you program to assist you.

It's still experimental at this stage. However, I've experience leading EdTech engineering departments and my wife is a teacher at my daughter's school. If my daughter's peers show interest I'll go ahead and build a course around this for primary school aged children.
