Hey guys, not sure if this has been shared on the forums but just saw this: https://thejournal.com/articles/2016/08/31/gaming-startup-deploys-stem-initiatives-in-223-schools.aspx?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed

pretty cool as it shows gamesalad is now being used in 223 schools. And based on the school fees, hopefully that should be providing some good income. I'm hoping it is a big successs and we see that number of school quadruple and more resources put toward the creator itself.

    I wish we had GameSalad when I was at school ! The nearest thing we had to programming at school was hopscotch (not the app, the version you draw on the ground with chalk).

    I hope they have more than 6700 students signed up. You do the math.

    It's the schools that are signed up not the students, that's probably the total number of students in all the schools!

    Crikey - what school can afford to have an IT lab full of macs?

    I didn't know they had a Chanel. They could post this in the forums and provide links for members to pass on to their kids schools. Or students themselves could discuss with teachers.

    Seems a bit secretive on the forums about it.

    They did post today. Well done.
