We wanted to get our hands dirty with hardware in our first Hackathon. We wanted to make something interactive and fun so we decided to start with a small classic game of Snake with a hardware twist. We used a Nokia screen, and using Bluetooth we submit our commands to the Arduino from a written controller app on a Laptop. Bluetooth was a big deal for us to practice for future projects and this was a great start. We also implemented a LED matrix scoreboard which keeps count as you play. The snake game was completely written from scratch and keeps a highscore, increases difficulty with score, and has randomly generated targets.
