At the bottom left Riccardo's program showing Caparezza and a moon in a personalisation of the Blue Invader Pytch game. At the bottom right the PyCon Italy logo, a Python logo made with Lego and Pytch logo.

ALT Collage of 4 pictures showing programs personalised by CTYI students. On the top left a student created a program with an airplane collecting object like stars with colorful background. On the top right a student represented a soft green alien toy into the Pytch program. The green alien collects small aliens in a starry background, saying the value of each small alien collected, while a cat is counting the total point collected on the left.
