HOW TO PLAY

P1

Your kid

Directs. Builds. Keeps the game.

  1. Quest 01Catch, the first quest's game: apples falling past a city skyline at night

    Your kid directs

    Your kid directs. Coach builds one change at a time, asks before it guesses, and never takes over. Real files, a real browser, a real game.

  2. Your tool

    done. 15 min.

    You set it up once

    One line, pasted into the AI tool you already drive. Fifteen minutes, one time. After that you sit where you can see the screen and not reach the keyboard.

  3. The shelfA platformer built in a later quest: a character crossing floating platforms toward a lit door

    The games are theirs

    18 quests across 5 worlds, a cabinet on their shelf for every finished game, and a link you can text to grandma.

Press start for real this time

Free. No card. A grown-up's email, and your kid never gets a password.

The link signs you in. There is no password to make or remember.

By continuing you agree to the terms and privacy notes.

Controls

Coach runs on the computer, not a browser tab.

Founding block · 100 seats

Your seat is free. It never turns into a bill.

seat 101 pays $49 a month · seat 501 pays $89.

The lit seat is the one you would take. No names go on this map, now or ever.

After you sign in

  1. Name your kid's studio. One screen, about thirty seconds.
  2. Copy one line out of HQ and paste it into your AI tool, on your kid's computer. It installs Coach and pairs the laptop.
  3. Hand the laptop over. Quest 0 is Open the Lab: your kid meets Coach and runs a real game on their own computer.

You can stop after step one and come back. The only thing that expires is the pairing code, and a new one is one button away.

Not today?

The wall is open to anyone: see what kids have built. The setup is public too, so you can read it before you commit. The map above is live.
