A teacher built a chemistry space game site that his classes play in crews

He teaches chemistry and built a website with AI where his students form crews, make an avatar and a spaceship, and travel between planets that stand for class units, entering learning academies to fight boss battles or other crews. He funds it himself, uses AI for some of the interactive lessons and Canva for graphics, and posted asking how to work more efficiently and use fewer tokens.

How it works

  1. Build the site with AI
  2. Students form crews and create avatars and spaceships
  3. Each planet stands for a unit, with learning academies and boss battles
  4. He refines it as he goes, cutting chats off and handing a summary file to the next one

Why it’s worth knowing

The boss battles are his unit tests. A teacher with no software background turned his own course into a persistent game world and pays for it out of pocket.
