Proto-buino

[juande]

I couldn't wait for my gamebuino to arrive and I built this little prototype. Just the basics: Screen, buttons and buzzer. It's all I need for now.





It was fun building it! But It'll be more fun to develop some games.

hi juande, looks great

u do seem to have so problems with the buttons, u may want to consider soldering up a controler of some sort with protoboard

cant wait to see some games of you

Actually it was a problem with a cable that I was moving while pressing the buttons. Now it's fixed. Although sometimes some push buttons pop out too while using it, it's fine for testing purposes.

Looks good, where did you get the screen?

Looks great, well done!
Your screen contrast seem to be a little to high, you can adjust it in settings.c
It's awesome to see how eager you are

Awesome! My buttons were popping out as well, I solved it by applying a tiny bit of solder along each leg.

Thanks! I'll try that!

That's an interesting looking Arduino and break-out board you've got there, what are they?
