Game-making videos

Build real games in Scratch, starting from zero

No ready-made code, no magic tricks. Every video opens an empty Scratch project. Bina & Bimo drag in one block at a time, explain why it is there, click the green flag to test, and fix bugs right in front of you, until you have a game you can actually play.

  • Long 16:9 lessons with chapters: one whole game from start to finish.
  • Bite-size vertical Shorts: one skill per clip, in about a minute.
  • Real coding ideas: events, conditions, loops, variables, lists, clones, broadcasts.
  • Download the pixel-art Bina & Bimo sprites and backdrops (link in each description) and build along.
  • Every video ends with an “All the code” page: pause and copy.

Drawing videos

Draw with Bina & Bimo: better with every picture

Bina & Bimo lie on a colourful rug, a sheet of paper each, and draw with you line by line. Light pencil shapes first, then the outline, then bright crayons. Now and then Bimo gets it a little… wrong, everyone has a good laugh, and then you fix it together.

  • A 25 to 85 second vertical Short for every picture; harder pictures also get a slow, detailed 16:9 lesson.
  • A different twist each time: guess the picture, Bimo’s funny extras, colouring together. Never boring!
  • The paper in the video faces you, so every line is easy to follow.

5 drawing levels, every step within reach

Start with a few circles, work up to a real painting.

  1. An orange cat drawn from circles

    1Very easy

    One thing from 1 to 3 basic shapes or a number: a 2 turns into a swan, circles turn into a cat.

  2. A yellow bus

    2Easy

    One thing with many parts and small details: a bus, a crab, a fairy-tale castle.

  3. A farm picture with a windmill, a red barn, a cow and chickens

    3Medium

    A whole picture with a scene: a farm, camping in the woods, a balloon over the mountains.

  4. A crouching tiger

    4Hard

    Free curves, the right shapes, lots of detail: a prowling tiger, a leaping dolphin, a flying dragon.

  5. A Vietnamese village with bamboo, a buffalo and a kite

    5Like an artist

    A real painting with light and shade: a Vietnamese village, a Mid-Autumn night, a kitten on a rainy day.

Robot coding videos

Code real robots with micro:bit

Robots are not just for looking at! Bina & Bimo write programs with MakeCode blocks, test them in the simulator right in the browser, then load them onto a real micro:bit robot car that drives itself, dodges obstacles, follows a black line and… fights sumo!

  • Works in the simulator and on real cars such as Cutebot, Maqueen and Tiny:bit.
  • One long 16:9 video per lesson, from the first command to a self-driving car.
  • Sensors explained with pictures: line-following eyes, the distance sensor, buttons A and B.

Course 1: the micro:bit robot car, 18 lessons in 4 stages

From easy to hard, each lesson builds on the last.

  1. Stage 1 · Meet the car

    1. Go straight, turn left, turn right
    2. Drive with buttons A and B
    3. Draw a square with a loop
    4. Dance to music
    5. Make your own “turn right 90°” block
  2. Stage 2 · Distance sensor

    1. Dodge obstacles by itself
    2. Show the distance on the LEDs
    3. Slow down near a box
    4. Follow your hand
    5. Sumo car pushes the box
  3. Stage 3 · Line sensors

    1. Follow the black line
    2. Patrol the line, stop at a box
    3. Race 3 laps, count with a variable
    4. Turn signals when turning
  4. Stage 4 · Sensors and many cars

    1. Headlights that turn on in the dark
    2. Shake alarm
    3. Remote control by tilting a second micro:bit
    4. Two cars talk over radio
