Do you think a background in coding is necessary?

Chapters 1 - 3 can be mostly done without a coding background, but the game does ramp up once you get to chapter 4. One feature we'd like to introduce is difficulty levels so the game is accessible to a larger group of people.

If you haven't already, I invited you to give chapter 1 a try. You should be able to complete it within 30 minutes, no background in coding required. Let us know what you think!
