Is it just me or does this sound pretty much like Robot Turtles on a computer? Personally, I prefer the offline (human to human) approach of teaching/learning, but this might be a good complement.
- blueblob 13y agoSounds like an up to date version of logowriter to me. I think anything that teaches kids to program early is a good thing.
- frezik 13y agoWell, Robot Turtles is a version of Robot Rally themed for young kids. Take that as you will.
- streetlogics 13y agoThis makes me giggle a bit, because for me, when I saw Robot Turtles launch their campaign on Sept. 3rd (1 month after we released the BotLogic prototype on August 1st), I said "hey, this sounds pretty much like BotLogic!" :) I had hoped we would see the quick success they did as well considering the similarities, but I guess that's what you get when you aren't a fancy big name Google employee. I certainly have my work cut out for me. For what it's worth, I ended up backing Robot Turtles too because I think the idea is cool! I think it's also cool to be able to use "pseudo-code" to build your programs and watch the program execute on your computer, and I think each has it's benefits and drawbacks.
