Implementación de videojuegos mediante la biblioteca VGAX de Sandro Maffiodo

Implementación de videojuegos mediante la biblioteca VGAX de Sandro Maffiodo, un trabajo de @Rob+Cai. En el foro de Arduino hay un hilo "Arduino color game (Bomber) using VGA library" con más información y distintas versiones de juegos.

Uno de los juegos incluidos es Pong! de Atari, el primer videojuego digital. A diferencia de otros, Pong utilizó un circuito totalmente digital para producir los gráficos, el sonido y el control del juego. No hay software ni CPU, sólo una colección de 66 circuitos integrados discretos que realizan una única función, interconectados para crear el juego que…

Arduino-VGA-Games: common questions

What microcontroller does the Arduino-VGA-Games use?

The Arduino-VGA-Games is built around the Arduino UNO R3, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Arduino-VGA-Games PCB?

The Arduino-VGA-Games measures 69.6 × 54.4 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Arduino-VGA-Games?

10 components, from 5 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Arduino-VGA-Games design files?

From the lmtreser/Arduino-VGA-Games repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Arduino-VGA-Games design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which lmtreser chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Arduino-VGA-Games without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug AVR/Arduino firmware against it before you order a PCB.
