Automated excerpt

On a typical high res display that’s about 2 characters worth of space but because the LEDs used are huge compared to your typical pixel on a normal screen the display ends up quite large. 48x32 cm works out to about 19x12”. Note how the graphics are all composed of single LEDs, the features are obstacles (purple) food (yellow), the snake itself (green) and the snake head (blue). This is a single player game but I’ve also built a number of simple two player games with it.
