It's Mid-Autumn Festival Time! Moon Cakes, Paper Lantern Parades... how about a game?
"Build me snake". A few turns with @GameSalad's Bowlbot AI and a few clip art sites later we have:
Harvest Moon Cakes!

#MidAutumnFestival #TetTrungThu #HarvestMoon
Building this one was a trip down memory lane as my family used to play this game every year for Tết!
We'd cash in some of our fresh bills for change and grandpa would grab his big jar of change to play the "house"

Chúc Mừng Năm Mới
Celebrate Lunar New Year with a GameSalad one-day-build of the classic Vietnamese Game "Gourd, Crab, Fish, Tiger"

May your year be healthy, prosperous, and creative!

Had a blast working with @gshelper to bring this to life!
We almost added an AI text feature, but the text it came out with was a bit too long, so we punted on it for now.

Wishing you a season of love, joy, and creativity!
Have fun with the @GameSalad Ugly Holiday Sweater Generator!

Huh.
I just discovered that there's a quiz app for the swift programming language #madeingamesalad
arcade.gamesalad.com/play/13…
Getting to judge this contest and see the creativity coming out of our school is one of the biggest highlights of my year!
Every year students take up the GameSalad Creator Challenge. And every year the bar is raised!
During the week we'll announce the 2024 Challenge Winners.
Today, let's celebrate the 2023 winners!

I’m glad EGaDS has evolved beyond needing my ad hoc officer position of “Random Task Handler”
If you’re at @UTAustin and looking to get into games, this is where it’s at!
EGaDS! is looking for officers for the 2024-2025 year!
Check out the form to learn more what these positions are, which are open, and our expectations!
Deadline is on April 18th @ 11:59 PM, but we will be looking at applications on a rolling basis.

We asked @gshelper whip up this leap year app for @GameSalad4Edu
I remember the leap year checker as one of those “hello world” level programming challenges from my early days programming.
Passing on the challenge to a new gen!
#leapday2024 #LeapYear2024 #LeapYear
Can you answer this: Is It A Leap Year?🤩
Challenge your students implement the leap year checking algorithm and build their own game around it!✅

Just under the deadline, had to put in a late night to get this together in time for Groundhog Day!
1 day until #GroundhogDay; predictions for spring will arrive from all over the continent!
Build a fun app combing:
- @GameSalad
- @tylerbenning_'s groundhog-day.com/api
- and an assist from @glitch
in this new tutorial!

I've been itching to see this out in the wild for quite a while now. And you get to enjoy this game #madeingamesalad for @GameSalad4Edu too!

Last few times I’ve been at a @gamesalad table. This is my first year on the crawling side of the #CFHouse #SXSW Startup Crawl!
It's coming together. This is not _the_ game for our @LegendOfEros collab, it's _a_ game.
@LegendOfEros is going to be a cool experiment in building story and gaming around an NFT game building community, powered by @GameSalad's ease-of-creation.

We did a thing. Happy Holidays!

For #GivingTuesday we thought we'd highlight the following groups:
@mouse_org
@GirlsMakeGames
In our home town #ATX
@girlstart
@Latinitas
So if you have something to spare, help build the next generation of coders, game creators, and world builders!
