Project's Social Benefits
The project has as much to do with teaching computer programming as it is concerned with art.
Kids will be invited to participate as well as converse about art and technology on the premises.
By analyzing "sprites" and actions, it teaches young people who are unfamiliar with the games of the past, how these games are constructed and assembled. The "code" is implied by the actions "on screen" thereby manually causing the actions/reactions occurring on screen within the game, the "programmer" is forced to analyze the behavior of the items on screen in order to accurately reflect it.
Get Kits
Kits will be made available as downloadable zip files. These will either be lasercutter files, graphic files for hand-cuts, and much much more. These will also include instructions. We hope to have at least 5 available by the time the Kickstarter project becomes complete.
