Hmm, this looks interesting although I agree with jmathes that it needs polish.
I was really surprised to be thrown completely out of the game world when I clicked 'solve it' on the first problem. It might be nicer to at least open the console screen into a new tab, or have some kind of visual reference to the game world. It felt jarring.
It feels like there's not much guidance on how to start, if it's actually intended for beginning programmers. It might be helpful to add a hint system? I'll send it to my boyfriend who has been teaching himself python for a couple of months, see what he thinks.
I really appreciated having keyboard shortcuts to save and run the program though, good thinking :)
