Build a game file

One Excel workbook per lecture, with up to five sheets โ€” each feeds one or more minigames. Download the template, replace the sample rows with your course content, then drop the file here to check it. Row 1 of every sheet is the header. Any sheet can be left empty; its minigames are just skipped.

You can also load the spreadsheet straight into the host screen โ€” checking it here first just catches mistakes before class.
