Program Description

Event Details

Have you ever wanted to make your own arcade game? We're looking for curious, creative problem solvers who want to learn how to plan, design, build, and play your very own arcade game made with cardboard and recycled parts. 

In this program, Ben Konowitz, owner of Full Tilt Arcade & Pinball, will explain how arcade games work. He'll bring a pinball machine, open it up to showcase its electronic components, and allow you to play. Ben will also answer any questions you have about arcade games!

Participants will go home with building skills AND a cool game they can share with friends.
