How is your project related to the theme? (Optional)
We focused on how to teach students to think with logic to resolve puzzles, that could guide them eventually to learn how to code
How did you innovate on this product? (Optional)
We give the teachers or tutors an AR tool to construct an infinite number of levels, (kind like Mario Maker), so they could literally convert any space where they are in a ar world where the students could learn and practice their logic skills
How does it speak to Niantic's mission? (Optional)
We really believe in the "Real Metaverse" that Niantic wants, but as much as we want to use the vps system, we decided to not anchor the learning experience to an specific place, so that any place that the teacher or tutor choose, can be an empty canvas to bring the Real Metaverse and with that continue the learning experience
How complete is your project? (Optional)
I think its totally a playable game, the only thing its that maybe we could improve with more time the UI, and add more type of cells, but overall we are very happy with the results and with the lightship ARDK

Feedback from Summer Gu, Niantic Product Manager:
"This is a great example of how a game can be used to teach programming techniques. Very innovative, and great use of AR here as well! As you mentioned in the submission, it would be even better if the UI can be more user-friendly, but this is already very impressive."
Feedback from PatCat, Lightship Leader:
"I'm blown away by how complete this is for a mini jam entry! Very nicely done and built up nicely on Lightship tech. Always great to see new concepts for teaching programming. With improved UI, this would be great to release and get students playing around with."
