After many questions and with the guidance of many dedicated Arcade fans, I am proud to announce my first arcade game “Frogging Fun”.
I would like to give special thanks to everyone who helped my along the way. There were a few issues which if it weren’t for the help of @jwunderl, @darzu, @AlexK & @richard , I wouldn’t have been able to finish it. I would also like to thank others that helped along the way: @LCProCODER, @UnsignedArduino, @GameGod and @Dreadmask197 your ideas are great.
I hope you guys enjoy it and I look forward to changing the complexity of the game and adding some animations.
Kudos on a great rendition! There are a lot of clever techniques here to get the game to play correctly. Plus, it’s really fun and quite challenging. Nice work!
Thank you for your compliment. For the first version I wanted to get the game play working before adding extra complexity such as animations, changing speeds, number of enemies, and extra enemies (like a crocodile, snake, otter, etc).
I also got the game to work on my pygamer, I had to lower the movement speed. However, with my latest version, I can no longer download it on to the device (Cannot download to PYGAMER). I have also posted an item at the support forum of adafruit (https://forums.adafruit.com/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=170730), hoping that someone can help.
That sounds like an interesting block for defining a recursive function. I don’t even want to imagine what that block would look like; otherwise it will turn into a black hole.
There aren’t too many video consoles these days, and I am not sure whether you can play the original online. Plenty of companies have made imitations since the game was developed in 1981! Here’s a YouTube film based on the original:
The trick is to be really careful when landing on an empty nest. It does allow for a smal margin of error, 2.5 pixels to be precise. I died most of the time trying to navigate through the traffic.
