Many students spend hours scrolling social media daily… …but imagine if they spent even 30 minutes playing a WAEC practice game that actually prepares them for exams. The good news? You can build one WITHOUT knowing programming. 👇 We are now in the era of NO-CODE development. That means you can create apps and games using drag-and-drop tools instead of writing complex code. 👇 For this tutorial, use gdevelop.io �. Why? 👉Beginner-friendly 👉Free to start 👉Works on phone and laptop 👉No coding required 👇 STEP 1: Install GDevelop Go to: gdevelop.io � Download it or use the web version directly from your browser. 👇 STEP 2: Create a New Project Open GDevelop → Click “Create a New Project.” Choose: Empty project OR Quiz game template Templates make things easier for beginners. 👇 STEP 3: Decide Your Subject Start with ONE subject only.
