🕵️♂️ The Story Behind the Platform
At some point, I set out to create my first educational platform. 📚 I used the best tool on the market 💡, followed all the "rules" 🤷♂️, structured the lessons into neat little boxes 🏦, locked them behind a paywall 💸, and waited...
⏳ No interest.
I had to pay for ads 📢, create promo videos 🎥, and wait for someone to pay just to access my lessons.
❌ Honestly, it was the most boring and failed experience of my life. ❌
So, I gave up 👊, deleted everything 🔌, and started over with a completely different approach! 🔄✨
🎮 The Maker’s Challenge – An Educational Game!
Instead of creating yet another boring educational platform, I turned knowledge into a game! 🕹️🎮
✅ Lessons became missions 🛠️
✅ Knowledge levels became game levels 💪
✅ The platform became a vast digital world! 🌍
And that’s how The Maker’s Challenge was born!
✨ Think of it like Minecraft! ✨
👉 Instead of building houses with blocks in Minecraft, we’ll design real constructions in Fusion 360! 🌏
👉 Instead of just seeing them on a screen, we’ll 3D print them and hold them in our hands! 🌟🤖
🎨 Your Journey in The Maker’s Challenge!
🔸 Level 1: 3D Printing 🖨️
We’ll learn everything about 3D printing! You’ll understand the process, materials, and machines so you can turn ideas into physical objects!
🔸 Level 2: 3D Design ✏️
Once you master printing, we’ll move on to 3D design! Here, you’ll create your own unique designs and bring them to life!
🔸 Level 3: Mastering the Game! 🎓
You’ll combine knowledge and experience to create your own projects! Join the Maker community and become part of the 3D printing world! 💪
🎮 Game Duration
🧑🎓 Normal Students
⏳ Under normal conditions, the game takes about 2 to 3 months. This is the time needed to understand the basics and turn them into practical skills! 💡🔧
🎮 Gamers
🎲 If you play Minecraft, SimCity, or similar games, then transferring your skills from the digital 3D world to the Fusion 360 design environment will be easy. 🤯
🟢 You already know how to place blocks
🟢 You think in 3D
🟢 You understand structures and volumes
⏳ With this experience, the game may take you just 1-2 months! 🚀
🦸 God Mode Gamers
⚡ If you’re the kind of person who can binge-watch a 25-episode Netflix season in a day and a half, then... you might finish the game in just one week! 🤯🔥
💡 Not sure if your printer will have arrived by then, but that’s another issue! 🤣
💡 Some of Your Missions:
➡️ Buy your first 3D printer (~€260) 🛒
➡️ Register on the platform and become part of the community (€28/month) 🌎
➡️ Create your own designs! 🎨
➡️ Print your first objects! 🔧
➡️ Explore the labs and projects waiting for you! 🚀
🛑 When Does Payment Start? 💰
✅ Knowledge is free! You don’t have to pay anything at the start! Only when you decide to actively participate or purchase your printer. 🎓🛠️
💡 What Does "Participation" Mean?
🔹 Participation allows you to download files to your computer! 💾
🔹 You’ll be able to edit ready-made designs and save time by doing reverse engineering instead of starting from scratch! 🛠️💡
🚫 Warning: This Journey is NOT for Everyone!
I don’t want to, nor do I try to, force anyone into The Maker’s Challenge.
If this doesn’t excite you, then this program is NOT for you. ❌
However... if you love the idea of creating, playing, and learning through a unique experience, then...
