Hacker’s Featured Game | The Asteroid Field
Ground Control to Major Tom... there's a lot of asteriods out here!

This week's featured game of the week is out of this world! In this Game Dev game, you get to blast off into the asteroid field in your own tiny spaceship. Fire your engines and pilot your ship through space to safely land into the blue wormhole at the other end.
But WATCH OUT! Your journey won't be without its challenges. As you navigate your spaceship, huge asteroids will be an obstacle between you and your portal to another dimension!
As you progress in points, more asteroids will appear making your quest more dangerous!
Ready to show your skills as an astronaut? Head over to your dashboard to get started on your guided or unguided hacks in the game!
Hackers will be able to change the game's code through code blocks in Scratch. With the code card in your game, you can embark on guided hacks to tweak and transform the game to your heart's content. Want your spaceship to zoom through space even faster? Increase the asteroid count for more obstacles? Or perhaps you fancy shrinking the wormhole to a pinpoint for an even bigger challenge? It's up to you to decide!
Your creativity is as endless as space itself! Design your own spaceship, swap asteroids for goofy aliens, or even introduce entirely new elements to the game.

About The Code Zone Academy
Posts like this one are written by the mentors, about what members have been building. The Game Dev Academy has no fixed session time: a new build goes up every week and a child opens it whenever they are ready, with a STEM-certified mentor answering by text and video message when they get stuck.
Children build their own games rather than following a set course, starting in Scratch. Levels move down as readily as up, and staying where you are is a perfectly good outcome. Every mentor is background-checked and STEM-certified.

The blog is in two halves. Guides are the evergreen explainers written by the mentors who teach the clubs, covering the questions parents actually ask: what comes after Scratch, how to support a coding-mad child when you cannot code yourself, and what works for autistic and ADHD children.
Club news is the other half, and it is where posts like this one live: game jams, Minecraft builds and weekly roundups, written up by whoever ran the session. Neither is marketing. If you want to know what the work actually looks like before you sign up to anything, club news is the more honest read of the two.
