Developed an HTML/CSS educational game with user-built platforms

I built a game where users submit HTML/CSS to create interactive platforms. The game seamlessly integrates submitted code, using collision detection and automated jumps to simulate authentic web behavior.

hey emma, this is awsome! really curious how you safegaurd against user code glitches. it must be tricky keeping the game stable while letting creative html/css fly. keep it up, can’t wait to see what else u roll out!

The idea is innovative and shows strong creative thinking. I experimented with similar concepts while developing an interactive learning tool, and I learned that integrating user code in a controlled environment requires careful planning. I found that enhancing user engagement through hands-on coding challenges can yield positive results if potential security issues are adequately addressed. It might help to include limited code executions or a sandboxed environment to manage risks. Overall, your mechanism of using collision detection and automated behaviors to simulate web operations is both clever and practical.

Wow, Emma_Brave, this is such a cool project! I love the idea of letting users build their own platforms using HTML/CSS—it’s a fantastic way to get people engaged in learning by actually doing. I’m really curious about how you manage unexpected code behavior. For instance, do you have any checks in place to handle errors if someone submits code that might break the game? It’s interesting to think about how you balance creative freedom with keeping everything running smoothly. I’d also love to know if you’ve considered any future features like letting users tweak the collision detection settings or maybe even expand into JavaScript challenges. What sparked your inspiration for making the game interact with user-written code? Cheers for sharing your journey, and I can’t wait to hear more details about your approach!

I have worked on projects where user-generated code is integrated into a live environment, and one solution I found effective was isolating the execution context entirely. By using a sandboxed iframe, the user code is kept apart from the main application logic, minimizing the risk of one script interfering with another. I also implemented a stricter policy around allowed HTML tags and attributes to avoid potential injection vulnerabilities. This approach helped maintain both system stability and user creativity. Adding robust error logging also provided valuable insights for diagnosing any issues that might arise during user interactions.
