Brick Arcade 🧱🎮
Cheerful browser games for kids, made with Claude Code to show students what they can build.
Every game follows the same rules: fun in 5 seconds, no way to lose, no reading needed, and great with a game controller (keyboard and touch work too).

Running it
No build step and nothing to install. Each game is one HTML file using Three.js 0.160.0 from jsDelivr (internet needed on first load).
git clone https://github.com/8GSean/brick-heroes.git
cd brick-heroes
python -m http.server 8000 # then open http://localhost:8000
Opening index.html straight from the folder also works in Chrome and Edge.
Building more with Claude
Open this repo in Claude Code and describe your wish ("In Drum Jungle, add a cow that moos when I bonk it").
CLAUDE.md tells Claude the arcade rules so new games and changes fit in.
Each game keeps its tweakable numbers and colours in a CONFIG object near the top of its file.
