MIT Video Game Program
MIT created a somewhat simple program to create games. The program is called Scratch, which can be installed on both a Mac and PC. The use of games on news and information sites would likely become more prevalent if the process did not involve so much time, resources, and technical knowledge. Bonnie Bucqueroux gave me the tip about this program. Like YouTube, you can create your own projects, save your favorite projects, and friend other Scratch enthusiasts. The bulk of the material on the site is created by young people using the program to blast meteorites or dragons. I found other Scratch creations such as an imperial-metric converter and calculator.
One of the issues with the use of this program is that you can embed the image on your site, however it can be misleading. If you push the button/image, you can only play the game on the MIT site, which took more than five seconds to load on my computer before I could play the game. Test it on yours by playing the piano.
