Bloxels makerspace

What is it?
It's a game where you can get smarter by playing with blocks. It exercises your brain with math skills like fractions,addition,subtraction,area,perimeter,symmetry,division,and multiplication. You can use your imagination to make cool characters and cool worlds and cool backgrounds. Each block has a different color and each block is different green=terrain, yellow=coins,pink=power-ups,blue=water,purple=enemies,white=story-blocks, orange=exploding blocks,and red=hazard. There is a board with block spaces where you can put the blocks in if you think it is good then you get an iPad then you can scan it and your own game will come to life in the iPad. Here is the link to the Bloxels website: http://www.bloxelsbuilder.com/
How do you play it?
There are arrows that say you can go left and right and a button that you can jump if you press it and another button that says you can shoot with or throw bombs. You have three hearts if you lose all three hearts it says you can restart from last checkpoint or restart the whole thing from the beginning or you could quit and make a new world.
What do different blocks do?
Terrain is the ground you can walk on it. Coins are things you can collect but you don't need them. Power-ups you can get bombs or a jet pack.Water you can jump higher when you are in water and enemies can survive in water. Enemies can take away you hearts and if you shoot it at least 2-3 times to defeat the enemy or with a bomb, one bomb can take out at least 3-4 enemies. Story-blocks are check points if you lose all three hearts you can come back from your last checkpoint. Exploding-blocks if you shoot a exploding block it will hurt the enemies but it won't harm you. Hazard blocks are like lava you touch them they take away life.
Maker space purpose.
My maker space purpose is to let kids use there imagination while doing math.They can also be creative and be challenged. You can do fractions, addition, subtraction, area, perimeter, symmetry, division, multiplication.If you can't do it then you you could put more power-ups or less enemies.
How do you beat the level?
You have to get all the coins and have to defeat all the enemies. If you can't beat the level then you can do other strategies. Like get the coins first then defeat the enemies or defeat the enemies first then get coins.You could just take out the enemies one at a time or take all them out at one time. If you don't put coins then all you have to do is take out the enemies or if there is no enemies then all you have to do is get the coins.
