The BornHack 2022 Game On Badge #CircuitPython #PiDay #RP2040 @Raspberry_Pi
The BornHack 2022 Game On Badge puts the focus on games. With the shape of a small controller and a color LCD screen in the middle, it’s ready for a bunch of interesting homebrew games.
This badge uses the RP2040 dual core Cortex M0+ microcontroller from Raspberry Pi and has 16MB of Quad SPI flash for code and media files.
The badge will have CircuitPython preloaded for a very low barrier of entry, all you need is a USB-C cable, and your favorite text editor and you are on your way to your own games.
In addition to screen and navigation buttons, there are are also a standard SAO v1.96bis connector and a Qwiic/Stemma QT connector for interfacing with modules in those eco-systems over I2C.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
