"Creating" something from scratch is a very advanced stage in ones

The first step on the road to being a creator is to make small
modifications to something that is already there.
Even highly-experienced programmers do much more modifying than
ground-up creation.
Which suggests to me that it would be better to have a compelling game
that people like to play as-is, and make it easy to make simple mods
without having to first learn a complex framework.
Ideally, it should be possible to expand from that into more and more
complex mods, until you have eventually embraced the whole system.
I think you are right that creating something new is an advanced task
but I think that there are different levels of interaction and we should
try to provide tools for all of them. One of it is definetly to modify
existing tools/games.
Memosono-wise the next steps are to bring networking back and then
improve on the mods. I will make a play mode and an edit mode. In the
edit mode you can add pictures and sounds to the game ( I hope we will
have an interface to use the mic-in and camera for such perposes soon
(if not there yet) ) - so you can create your own memosono games and
share them with the others.
