For those looking for a portable game console made in France, to learn how to program, the Gamebuino META is finally available!
The META is a portable, retro and open source console, it is the fruit of the Saint-Etienne startup Aadalie. Fans of video game creation will be able to learn about coding and get paid via a fair sticker system.
The Gamebuino META is an open-source console based on the Arduino Zero architecture. It teaches "Makers" how to program games in a simple, scalable and fun way. In addition to the graphic and audio resources available, everyone will be able to count on a large community of amateur developers, adept at mutual aid. On the other hand, Makers can also rely on tools like video capture, multi-language support, and fast backups. They can also add elements, sensors, motors and also learn about electronics.
Fair trade stickers, like the games made by the makers, are on sale on the official online store, for 2 €. It is a way to support young creators and apprentice programmers since 1 euro is dedicated to them with each purchase. Aadalie has this fair fiber in her since the Saint-Étienne start-up has no hierarchy and therefore no management. Each employee is at the same level. If you are looking for work, the company is recruiting! In addition, Aadalie has an eco-responsible approach since the Gamebuino META is made of France from recycled materials.
Apprentice programmers can count on workshops, tutorials and references to program via the official website. Aadalie allows makers to publish their creation and partners with schools like Epitech.
