Maze Maker
We don't want to play favorites, but the updates to Maze Maker might be our favorite! (Shhh! Don't tell Asteroidia!)
Maze Maker has a different layout but functions the same. We moved things around to be more intuitive and added in more fun features, including new backgrounds and decorations! Learners draw their maze just as they did before.
We can't wait to see the mazes they create!

Maze Maker Menu Screen
The Maze Maker menu screen got a whole new design. Looking good, right? Kids will now be able to see their mazes along with their friends', giving them easy access to click and play. Building a new maze is front and center and of course their mazes are still proudly displayed.

Say "Hello" to the new Fuzz Builder menu screen! Of course, your students can still get creative and design their own Fuzzes by clicking 'Build.' But now your students' Fuzzes are adorably featured along with the classmate's Fuzzes! Let everyone see everyone's incredible creations. Don't worry; they won't be able to change each other's Fuzzes.
