Stagecast Product Overview:
Stagecast's products allow children and adults to build their own simulations and games and to publish their creations in a Web page. The basics of creating an application are quite simple: kids create objects, animate them and make them interact. The objects can be made to do different things depending on what objects are around them, as well as depending on user-defined properties of those objects, such as weight, energy level or speed. By defining these properties for the objects and writing rules for the objects' behavior, kids create interesting multimedia simulations complete with key-controlled interaction and sound effects. Along the way, they internalize fundamental object-oriented programming concepts like generalization, specialization, and the bundling of behavior with state into objects."
