Maze Generator: 8x8 RGB LED Matrix, Atari Joystick

Forum 2005-2010 (read only) General Exhibition

All,

Using a maze generation algorithm, I hooked up an atari joystick (via arduino and rainbowduino) to a 8x8 RGB LED Matrix.

Demo here: JoyLite Maze - YouTube

Need to work on some "you win" animations, and smoothing the transition between tiles. Might also keep an internal counter for how many moves it took to solve the maze.

Yep - Code for rainbowduino firmware and arduino here:

Thank you! :wink:

wow, that is really cool

that's pretty sweet, you should have it change through colours and be lost in a maze psychedelic style! :wink:

edit: I had another thought, maybe you can have the maze pulse (throb) giving it that "it's alive" effect! :o!
