Where to go from here?
Where can you go from here? Well, the possibilities are endless. Here are some nice ideas for you to try:
- Add score tracking and a UI for each player
- Add A.I. for player two so you can play alone
- Try making a new game instead of pong
- Try using potentiometers to control paddle movement instead of buttons
The possibilities really are endless. You basically have a Game Boy. Google around a bit and you'll find tons of great games or sample projects that make use of LCD screens. You could build a calculator, you could make other animations, etc.
I hope you've enjoyed this tutorial and learned more about electronic circuits, Arduino, soldering, and everything else that you've done here. I also hope that this tutorial sparks more interest in you to create other electric circuits and to continue tinkering. It really is a lot of fun.
