How to install Circuit Python

Download the zip file, extract it, and copy/past the "CircuitPython" folder to the root of your micro SD card.

Circuit Python Reference

All the generic functions (input / output, if / else, etc.) can be found on Adafruit's Circuit Python Essentials

Find below all the Gamebuino specific supported functions.

(usage is the same as the c++ equivalents)

Things in brackets [] are optional parameters

Base

  • void gb.begin() unneeded!
  • void gb.loader() loads loader, was very useful for testing & re-flashing

  • void gb.updateDisplay()
  • void gb.setFrameRate(int framerate)
  • int gb.getCpuLoad()
  • int gb.getFreeRam()
  • string gb.getDefaultName() Pretty useless as SD functionality isn't implemented currently
