Finding Tilly - Educational Kid-Friendly Web Game
๐ฎ Introduction: Why I Chose This Gameโ
For the AWS Build Games with Amazon Q CLI Challenge, I wanted to create a game that was not only fun to build โ but meaningful in purpose. With AI as my co-creator, I set out to design something that combined entertainment with educational value. Thatโs how "Finding Tilly" was born.
It's a kid-friendly adventure game that helps young children build foundational skills like alphabet recognition, number sequencing, and basic addition โ all wrapped in a visually engaging, story-driven experience.
๐ก Why This Concept?โ
I chose this idea for several key reasons:
- ๐ฏ It addresses a real need: making learning genuinely fun for kids
- ๐ง It has a simple, engaging premise thatโs easy for young minds to follow
- ๐ It naturally integrates multiple layers of educational content
- ๐ Its visual design makes it accessible even to pre-readers
- ๐ฑ It's modular and scalable โ the game evolves as the child grows
Thanks to Amazon Q CLI, building this experience was fast, flexible, and AI-assisted from start to finish. It allowed me to focus on creativity while automating much of the setup and development process.
"Finding Tilly" is more than just a submission โ itโs a small step toward using AI to inspire learning through play.
