Description
A handheld game console programmed with CircuitPython, designed by Radomir Dopieralski, that lets you learn programming by developing games (preinstalled: Othello, Frog, Snake, Tetris). It features an Atmel SAMD21 microcontroller, an 8×8 red LED matrix display, 6 buttons, an on/off switch, a micro USB port, a battery holder, and seven GPIO pins that can be used to connect electronic components such as NeoPixels, sensors, etc. When connected to a computer, it appears as a mass storage device, allowing you to view, modify, and save all the source files it contains. There is also an interactive Python REPL available as a serial console, for viewing errors and trying out commands. It is compatible with most Adafruit boards programmable with CircuitPython. No additional software needs to be installed on your computer.
