Hi!

I just build a small test game for my CS lessons. I tried to download it for my PyBadge but I don’t see the PyBadge in the hardware list anymore. We have about 40 of those at our school, so it would be a shame if the support for those was dropped. Anything on this? Thanks!

I can’t see it either, that’s so odd, I know other makecoders who also use pybadge so it would be weird for it to dissapear. Maybe try the ‘adafruit’ format?
