Every game that is published for the Arduboy Arcade is fully free, open source, and even available to be downloaded and edit if you’d like to mod it, make changes, or just fiddle around with it for fun.
The Arduboy is made from durable metal and polycarbonate construction, uses an OLED display, has 6 soft touch tactile buttons, a two channel speaker, is rechargeable and offers 8+ hours of play on a fully charged battery.
