Who we are #
chilichip is an indie electronics company. We make open source software and hardware, and we like it a little bit spicy.
Right now we are building the chilichip console: a pocket game console that comes with a no-code game creator. You make a game in your browser on the chili platform, then play it on the console. The platform is also where you buy the hardware, get games and meet the community.
Everything we make is open source. The code, the boards and the docs are all on GitHub.
| What | Where |
|---|---|
| The console and its prototype, VGC Zero | VGC Zero docs |
| Games for the console | Games |
| Making your own games | Game SDK docs, Bitsy docs |
| News and dev logs | Blog |
| Chat with us | Discord |
The team #
Kacper Akdağ-Ochnik
Founder and head engineer

Paweł Frankowski
Cloud engineer and software lead
Paweł leads the software side. He keeps the chili platform running in the cloud: the backend, the marketplace and the store. He reviews most of the code that ships, across the platform, the creator and this website. When something breaks at night, Paweł is usually the one who already knows why.
