My student, Ryan (autism)

I teach game making in my spare time. I have a blog that promote it. Unfortunately, I only have 2 students until now. Not good :)

My second student is a 12 years old boy. He has Pervasive Developmental Disorder. He cannot communicate normally. But I treat him as a normal boy. He can understand what I tell to him and he can respond. He thinks normally too. He can solve problem too.

I usually teach 3d Game Maker to my students. But I cannot install the software in Ryan's computer. I then remembered Game Maker. So I asked Ryan to download Game Maker. Then I teached him one hour and a half.

A week later, his mom said that Ryan want to make a game, so I didn't need to come to his house. Then he sent me his game. It's called Power Ball. He made it as a copy of DX-Ball game. He used features that I hadn't taught him. You can download the game he made from

He then planned to give more features in his game. But he hadn't finished it yet when I came to his house at Saturday.
