The difference is more than semantics; the guys only have to design a game.The girls, well, they’ll have to use software and actually make one.
The badge is currently only available for Girl Scouts in Los Angeles, as it’s part of a partnership with Women in Games International (WIGI), but it’s hoped it will soon be implemented worldwide.
