Don't even bother buying this for your kids. Just give them a PC program that atleast did some research on how children learn this kinda stuff the best. thats not on a ds

Or, you know, just teach your kids yourself. That's not too difficult, is it?

I remember as a kid (25+ years ago) I had a couple of these calculator type math learning gadgets. One was called Quiz Kid and the other was called Mr. Professor....or L'il Professor or something like that. I thought the Quiz Kid one was the better unit, but the L'il Professor one was more popular. The Quiz Kid used to eat batteries quickly too.

I rem in early grade-school, I was fascinated when we learned long division. I'd actually go home and make up my own problems to figure out.

These kinds of programs on the DS though.....they're probably the most dreaded carts a kid can receive. You know, they ask for Phantasy Star Zero or something similar and get an educational game instead. Gah!

it does seem like a good way to encourage some very young kids to study through games and make it more fun but how well do these game do? its questionable but definitely people (kids) will buy this game
it's better than wasting time with games

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar

    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Carrying a PC or phone is so old school!
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Squeeze your cheeks twice to answer calls!
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
