The notes/my thoughts from my conversation with Dolivo below. This will allow users to get support and ideas from one another, as well as share and download openly-licensed resources. Stencyl has also modeled itself on Scratch with its "StencylForce," its own game development community. The Android App Inventor, for example, also uses this sort of drag-and-drop interface.
It's hardly the only other Scratch-inspired project, of course. After I blogged about the idea of a Mozilla-made " Scratch for HTML5," Dolivo contacted me reminding me "that's where we're headed." Indeed, that was what interested me in the startup's pitch when I first heard it last year - when I saw that its game-creation tool was so Scratch-inspired, emphasizing building blocks rather than code. It's been almost a year since I covered the Stencyl's launch, back when I was still writing for ReadWriteWeb. The following interview is an interview with Joe Dolivo, developer relations and education lead for the startup Stencyl. Over the course of the past month, I've been working on a research project for Mozilla, asking a bunch of smart folks - technologists and teachers - whether or not the organization should build a tool to help boost Web literacy and help create more Web builders (and if yes, Mozilla should build a tool, what should it look like).
