Karel advanced features and competitions
We have started creating Karel games in our coding camps and would like to know about advanced features and competitions.
Game on! Once you get a feel for how Karel works, it’s fun to create challenges for yourself and others. Start small and build your competitions: a competition can be between two people, a club, a class, a school, or between libraries. Here are some tools to help you get started:
