Planet HEXBUG!

Happy CS Education Week Everyone!

We’re really excited to share our new Hour of Code Game, Planet HEXBUG! In this game, students use VEXcode VR to code a VR HEXBUG nano to find food and fend off enemies in a quest to survive as long as possible, leveling up along the way. The game’s low barrier of entry and high ceiling makes it accessible to students of any level, and it is a super fun way to get your kids coding. I’m willing to be an hour of code won’t be enough once they get started!

We’ve also created loads of teacher support materials, including STEM Library articles and VEXcode VR example projects that make it easy to get started, as well as a webpage supporting your endeavors to teach CS with Robots! If you try Planet HEXBUG with your students, please tell us about it here - we’d love to hear about it!

I have had so much fun with this game!

I will post some pictures of my students working on it soon.

Has anyone else here been using hoc.vex.com recently?
