Welcome to Game Camp!

Game Camp is an open-source project aimed at helping anyone learn to make mobile games using Python, by developing teaching materials and tutorials that make the process fun and accessible. It is based on Python and Kivy, and targets Android and IOS devices. We are looking for developers, educators, designers from a wide variety of backgrounds and skill levels to help us develop the Game Camp materials.

• See our Getting Started page for setup tips and links to basic tutorials, in particular, you will need Python, Juyter, and Kivy installed. Once you have that working, you may want to start with:
  • The Traditional Kivy Pong Tutorial: A jupyter notebook reworking the pong tutorial and incorporating suggestions from the Pycon 2016 Sprint event
  • Galaxy Invaders (@learnleapfly) Building a classic videogame
  • Building a Boardgame - Bao: Wrapping a kivy interface around a game engine
