Kid's Programming Language - KPL

If you like coding and simple games and perhaps want to teach your kids (or yourself for that matter) how to code games - check out Kid's Programming Language. It's free, it's based on .NET 1.1, it comes with a decent color-coded editor and a bunch of sample game code, sounds and sprites. Including a fully functional Missile Command game in around 1500 lines of code. An Asteroids looking game can be downloaded.

As you understand, the main focus of KPL seems to be to learn how to code by maknig games. Not a bad idea. I spent a few hours playing around with it and it's seriously fun. Anyone who knows just a little coding can make their own little game and version 2 of KLP will have full support for 3D.
