About
Planet Kodu is a resource developed by ideasLAB to support users of Kodu Game Lab for PC, a free programming language for children developed by Microsoft.
Using Kodu Game Lab, children are given the opportunity to approach problem solving and co-operative learning in an entirely new way. Planet Kodu was inspired by, and built to support, the rapidly growing Kodu Game Lab community.
With tutorials, challenges, sample games much more, Planet Kodu offers Kodu users an opportunity to connect and contribute to this community.
Our most recent initiative has been the release of Kodu Kwestions with Kodu Kwestions, users can advertise a programming challenge they are facing in Kodu Game Lab, and have it answered swiftly by Planet Kodu members.
Members of Planet Kodu can also earn badges and points based on their contributions to the new Kodu Kwestions portal. The morethey support the community, the more points and badges they earn.
