Kids Built These Games in Minutes โ€” with AI! ๐Ÿคฏ

Today at Career Day, kids discovered the power of AI โ€” not just to answer questions, but to build real things. Each class brainstormed ideas for an arcade-style browser game inspired by classics like Flappy Bird, and our AI helper turned those ideas into working games โ€” from idea to playable game in minutes!

How We Built the Games ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ

From a crazy idea in your head to a real playable game โ€” here's how it happened!

1
๐Ÿ’ก

Dream It Up

Kids brainstormed a game idea โ€” pick a character, choose a theme, and decide what makes it fun and challenging.

2
๐Ÿ“

Write the Prompt

We gathered all the ideas and turned them into clear instructions for the AI โ€” describing the game in as much detail as possible.

3
๐Ÿค–

AI Does the Coding

The AI helper (like Claude Code or Codex) read the instructions and wrote all the code โ€” HTML, CSS, JavaScript โ€” in one go!

๐ŸŽฎ

Play & Share!

The game runs right in the browser โ€” no install needed. Everyone can play it, share it, and even try to beat the Hall of Fame!

๐ŸŽฎ The Games

Each game was created by a different AI from a prompt written together with kids. Click any card to play!
