These challenges are designed to let you combine your new skills in creative ways. Pick the one that sounds most interesting to you.

Challenge 1: The Text Adventure Game
- Your Task: Using Python on your Windows computer, write a simple text-based adventure game. The game should present the user with a scenario and choices (e.g., "You are at a fork in the road. Do you go left or right?"). The story changes based on the user's input.
- Makerspace Tools: Windows Computer, Python.
Challenge 2: The Raspberry Pi Traffic Light
- Your Task: Using the Raspberry Pi, connect three LEDs (red, yellow, and green). Write a Python script that makes them light up in the correct sequence for a traffic light (green, then yellow, then red, and repeat).
- Makerspace Tools: Raspberry Pi, breadboard, LEDs (red, yellow, green), jumper wires.
Challenge 3: The Custom Game Controller
- Your Task: Find a simple online game that uses arrow keys and a spacebar. Using the Makey Makey, design and build your own custom game controller out of cardboard, foil, and any other conductive materials you can find.
- Makerspace Tools: Makey Makey, cardboard, aluminum foil, play-doh, etc.
Challenge 4: The Interactive Quiz Machine (Capstone Project)
- Your Task: This is the ultimate challenge that combines everything. Write a simple quiz program in Python on the Raspberry Pi. The program will ask multiple-choice questions on the screen. Then, use the Makey Makey to create physical "buttons" for the answers (A, B, C, D). When the user touches the correct answer button, the Raspberry Pi will light up a green LED; if they are wrong, it will light up a red one.
- Makerspace Tools: Raspberry Pi, Makey Makey, Windows computer (to look up guides), LEDs, and conductive materials.
