These video tutorials should help you get started learning with MicroWorlds EX<\/a> or MicroWorlds EX Robotics<\/a>! You may download them and watch them as often as you wish.<\/p>\n

These screencasts (video clips) were created to walk you through basic techniques you will need to create an original \u201cSnac Man Jr.\u201d game (it\u2019s like Pac Man without lawyers).<\/p>\n

The MicroWorlds EX Project book has a tutorial in creating a similar game, but I find that it is unnecessarily complex, despite having written it myself.<\/p>\n

I can now teach beginners to design their very own video game with very little instruction.<\/p>\n

Continue practicing using the MicroWorlds EX tools and turtle animation techniques before moving on to the main event.<\/p>\n
