From the project
Code and documentation repository for All Hands Active's gameGame4000 hackable solder badge kit
As any good hackerspace should, we encourage people to fully tinker with the code and designs, and to find novel uses for this project. We'd love to hear of your projects using our badge -- please get in contact with us if you'd like to share your project!
Since it is based on the same processor, much of this documentation is copied over from our last kit, the mktwo badge (https://github.com/allhandsactive/mktwo-badge/blob/master/README.md)

Gamegame4000: common questions
What microcontroller does the Gamegame4000 use?
The Gamegame4000 is built around the ESP-12E, from the ESP8266 family.
How big is the Gamegame4000 PCB?
The Gamegame4000 measures 108.8 × 57.8 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Gamegame4000?
34 components, from 21 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Gamegame4000 design files?
From the allhandsactive/gamegame4000 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Gamegame4000 design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with allhandsactive. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Gamegame4000 without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP8266 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
