I played with Scratch for some time with my 9 year old son. They've done an excellent job with it. We ended up using Construct 2, only because they've done an even better job and it releases to HTML 5, is playable on all kinds of devices including iPad.

https://www.scirra.com/construct2 https://www.scirra.com/construct2 - not seen that before, thanks for the tip. Edit: looks like it's Windows only. Will try with WINE. Edit2: Pretty buggy on WINE over Kubuntu 14.04 - crashes when trying to start project from template or when run layout on empty project.

  Tom here from Scirra (it's awesome to spot links to Construct 2 in the wild!) Yes, Windows only for now. We stuck with what we knew to start off which was Windows development.

I found this on the education link: >Construct 2 is a visual drag-and-drop game creator for Windows. Is that true, it's only for Windows? I'd like to know more, but I use Mac OSX and ideally I'd like something that ran there and/or on the iPad.

  Stencyl is another similar tool that runs on Win/Mac/Linux and exports to HTML5 (as well as native).
