The community opens, you stay in control
- New
Community: works and gallery
In the colour, sound, perspective, robot arm, recipe and plant simulations you can send what you built to the gallery with “Share as a work”. Only your nickname is shown in the community, and your profile stays private until you open it. No messages or comments: just “Appreciate” a work you like.

Monthly challenge
Each month, a small challenge with one simulation. Everyone who takes part earns XP once; there is no prize race or ranking, and our team picks featured works after the challenge ends.

A safe community
Every public work and profile can be reported. First works and text that looks like contact details are reviewed before they appear; the gallery and profiles are closed to search engines.

For everyone who is curious
- Improvement
The home, About and Educators pages were rewritten
The site is now built around curiosity rather than exams. The home page has a small dice experiment and a real lesson simulation you can try without an account. This page and the photo credits page also opened today.

Real photographs
Journey covers and pages now use photographs instead of patterns. All of them come from Unsplash; the photographers are named under each photo and on the credits page.

New topic: Curiosity
Exploration lessons that are not tied to a school year: Light and colour, Luck and probability, The scale of the universe. “Why is the sky blue?”, “The gambler’s fallacy” and “The light year” are a few of them.

Two new simulations: colour mixer and probability lab
You can build the colour of the sky with spotlights, or roll thousands of dice and watch where the result settles.

Journeys
Short series of lessons that start from a question: “Why do we slip on ice?”, “Does luck really exist?”, “How does electricity flow?” and four more. Every step’s simulation can be tried without an account.

Badges and reward moments
A small celebration and a badge when you finish a lesson, keep a streak or move up a level. You can also personalise your profile. There is no public leaderboard.

Pendulum, projectile and friction simulations
Three new physics simulations arrived, and the existing simulations are now animated too.

Statistics and a unit path on the student dashboard
The XP you earned in the last 7 days, your strengths and what to revise, where you are in the unit and which step of the lesson you’re on, all at a glance.

Predict first
Simulations ask for a prediction before they open. Predictions are not scored; after the correct answer you compare it with your own prediction.
- New
Progress table for educators
The lessons and activities each student in the class has completed, their quiz average and assignment status, in one table.
