/agdg/ - Amateur Game Development General★

If they help create that first bridge of understanding basic coding for devs, I see no problem with the method of learning.

I am skeptical of how much they're actually getting from edutainment programming games, though. I've never experienced them firsthand, but the concept sounds a bit far-fetched to me.

it's shit, read some tutorials and you're done

if the purpose of a game is you teach something, it has already failed. the design priority always needs to be fun, or people aren't going to play it in the first place.

games like infinifactory or human resource machine do a better job at the educational part, and not surprisingly, aren't marketed as educational.
