One of our more advanced projects is RetroBox. RetroBox is a game box that allows you to play whack-a-mole and repeater. In whack-a-mole, there are five buttons that randomly light up one at a time. Then, you push the button as quick as you can. The game speed up and if you don’t push the button in time, it’s game over and you’re shown your score (it also shows the high score). In repeater, the light flash up in a sequence, adding to the sequence each round. You have to repeat the sequence correctly or it’s game over.
The box was programmed, soldered, drilled, painted and wired with an LCD display, an Arduino, a buzzer etc. and was completed in the September of 2016.
