My cousin is about 10 years old, he and his friend have been wanting to learn how to make their own video games. I realize the takes some programming skills and that there are even colleges devoted to game programming, but I would just like to be able to give them a simple application they could start using to: 1) Get familar with programming concepts 2) Be creative and make simple games 3) Learn from and have fun Thanks in advance for any ideas, Todd </div>-- ubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> <a href="http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div> </blockquote> <div>On 7/1/05, Mustafa Abbasi <<a href="mailto:lordverminard@gmail.com">lordverminard@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> for the be creative part there is a game on the ps2 that allows you to make the entire game. it called called rpg maker 1,2</blockquote><div>Thanks Mustafa! that seems like a good idea.
