However, for simply posting the 'wrong' kind of (very common) scene, instead of receiving any warnings, it was an automatic 10-day IP-ban. The rules contain a lot of obviously bad violations that he would never ever dream of doing - using offensive language, insulting other users etc - and state that such behaviour will (rightly) result in a warning. Apparently, leaderboard scenes are against the rules (it had said in the rules, but he'd forgotten this - apparently, they don't want anything that might turn it into a 'chat' board?!?!). He posted a leaderboard/results chart scene showing where each 'athlete' appeared and instantly received a message that he had been banned for 10 days. The scenes are typically stick-person athletes, identified by the names of their many colours and shades, taking part in various sports/games and contests.Īfter months of making his own scenes and watching those posted by others, I let him set up an account (with my details) and upload his own. They have a connected program called Algobox, which allows children to register and then upload and share scenes that they've made. He first loved watching marble race videos and this was kind of a logical extension of that. He's a bit younger than the target age, but it's very much his 'thing'.

This is admittedly very niche, but does anybody (or their children) have any experience of Algodoo? It's a fun way of learning about physics and coding and my DS is absolutely crazy about it.
