Counterspell

Counterspell was a beginner-friendly game jam for highschoolers that happened in more than 50 cities all over the world on November 23rd and 24th as part of Hack Club. Teenager coders came together to build apps and games! I helped organize Counterspell Boston, planning and hosting the event at the Microsoft NERD Center on November 23rd. This was the second event I’ve helped organize and it was a great experience overall! I got to learn more about the process of finding venues, finding sponsors to raise money, and advertising to get attendees! We received over 85 sign-ups. The theme of the hackathon was You are Your Own Enemy. I had a great time meeting all the amazing people who came and building a project using pygame!
