List member, Shelley Wright, told me about Gamestar Mechanic.  Her students are 
using it in her tech class and love it!   Once they get started, students (or 
you) need to plan the game to unlock the toolkit and sprites, and then you can 
create your own multi-level game.  Shelley says that her  students try to make 
it difficult enough so that their friends can't beat it, which takes some skill 
and planning.  There is a lot of support for teachers, including curriculum and 
other resources that allow for dabbling or entire courses to be built around 
the resource.
