Day 65 of 100 Days of IoT — built a MicroPython Watch on Xiao ESP32-S3!
Shows NTP-synced time + live weather from OpenWeatherMap on a 0.96" OLED.
Biggest pain today: Hardware I2C kept failing, SoftI2C saved the day 😅

I spent a long time making this code and now I am going to share it with y'all. enjoy.
from microbit import *
import random
# Initialize spaceship position and score
ship_x = 2 # Middle of bottom row
score = 0
# Function to draw spaceship
def draw_ship(x):
display.set_pixel(x, 4, 9) # Bottom row, brightness max
# Function to generate new asteroid
def new_asteroid():
return [random.randint(0, 4), 0] # x position, y=0 top row
# List of falling asteroids
asteroids = []
# Main game loop
while True:
display.clear()
# Move spaceship based on tilt
if accelerometer.get_x() < -200:
ship_x = max(0, ship_x - 1) # Move left
elif accelerometer.get_x() > 200:
ship_x = min(4, ship_x + 1) # Move right
draw_ship(ship_x)
# Add new asteroid occasionally
if random.randint(0, 4) == 0:
asteroids.append(new_asteroid())
# Move asteroids down
for asteroid in asteroids:
asteroid[1] += 1
if asteroid[1] < 5:
display.set_pixel(asteroid[0], asteroid[1], 5) # Asteroid brightness
# Check for collisions
for asteroid in asteroids:
if asteroid[1] == 4 and asteroid[0] == ship_x:
display.show(Image.SKULL)
sleep(1000)
display.scroll("Score: " + str(score))
# Reset game
ship_x = 2
score = 0
asteroids = []
break
# Remove asteroids that have left the screen
asteroids = [a for a in asteroids if a[1] < 5]
score += 1 # Increase score over time
sleep(300) # Control game speed
has all the comments, just copy and paste. then you wanna plug it in to the irl one. shake it left or right. ur objective is to not hit the falling asteroids. if u do, you lose your points and it gives a skull emoji. you keep getting points.
