Would it be desired to haev a visual game creator, e.g. a web-based one, that allows creation of simple games by visual programming ( abit like in tools like RPG maker)?

That would allow non-coders, like teachers, to create games for their projects without learning much.

Yes, we should create a tool for that. Simple interfaces make sense because this Framework is all about simplicity.

@Creeparoo We should probably target this for 1.0.0 already. We could start with a simple online Text editor and add visual programming later. What do you think?

Moving to 2.0.0 again as this requires more restructuring than I first thought.

Had some ideas today that I want to note:

Use Git. Git is your friend. We can have the code editor work in a branch of a Git repo.
The game itself is loaded from an export of the Git repo, from a special branch that got code review.
Players can edit games, then send their changes in to review by an admin, who triggers merge into the reviewed branch and installation into the server.

I found codemirror to be a good choice for the web editor as it is maintained and shipped with Debian.
