PyGamers Camp is a next-level game design and engineering experience.
Using the Arduino PyGamer handheld console, students build and program interactive games that run on an actual device complete with:
Buttons
Screen display
Sound effects
Motion and environmental sensors
Campers don’t just code on a computer they see their games come to life on real hardware.
This is where software meets engineering.
What Campers Will Build
Throughout the week, students will:
Design and program original playable games
Learn how hardware and software communicate
Integrate sound effects and visual displays
Use physical buttons and input controls
Experiment with sensors and motion input
Debug and refine game performance
By the end of camp, each student will have built fully functional games that run on a handheld console.
Ages 8–12
Designed for students ready to go beyond basic coding and explore real device programming. Beginner-friendly, but ideal for curious builders and gamers.
Camp Dates
June 22 – 26
July 13 – 17
August 3 – 7
FAQs
Is this like a typical coding camp?
No. Students program games that run on a physical device not just on a screen.
Do students keep the device?
Yes! Campers can take home their programmed PyGamer device and games at the end of the week for an additional $30. This allows them to continue building, modifying, and expanding their creations at home.
Is this beginner friendly?
Yes. Projects are scaffolded for beginners while still challenging experienced coders.
What programming language is used?
Students learn beginner-friendly coding adapted for the Arduino PyGamer platform, focusing on logic, hardware integration, and game mechanics.
