My first game help (SOLVED)

[naed]

Hi all,

I just ordered my Gamebuino as encouragement to learn to code, so whilst waiting for it to ship I decided to try my hand at coding and running on an emulator... my first game is born

simple enough game that tries to get you to test your reflexes by matching the required number

Code: Select all

#include <SPI.h>
#include <Gamebuino.h>
Gamebuino gb;

int RandNumber;
int number = 0;
int state;

const byte numbers[] PROGMEM = {64,32,

I can't figure out something that i'd like to add and was hoping to get some advice

1. how would I be able to start/stop the counter with a single button (i.e press A to start the counter then press A again to stop the counter)

I tried to add this to a while(1) function but the number only ever increases by one as the button is depressed

thanks in advance

(I've attached the HEX file of my game if anyone want to try it out)

[clement]

I modify code for count / stop count with a single button.

I hope this help you

Code: Select all

#include <SPI.h>
#include <Gamebuino.h>
Gamebuino gb;

int RandNumber;
int number = 0;
int state;

//add boolean value for check state
bool isActiveCounter;

Clement, thanks for your quick response, it certainly helped me learn a few things and helped me add some finishing touches to my first ever game.

Your help has given me a little boost to show that I will be able to learn this (maybe the hard way, but I can do it)

Here is my finished code to help anyone who wants to also learn how to do something similar

Code: Select all
