Photograph your child's homework. crayon.live reads the answers they wrote, finds the ones they got wrong, and builds a game around those. Their own wrong answer is one of the choices, so they have to think it through instead of recognizing a shape. Each game is written fresh by GPT-6 Astra, then played to the end by the machine that made it before anyone sees it. This began as an entry for OpenAI's Astra Challenge, built at the kitchen table. It might stay a side project. It might not.
