Adding a Scoring System to the Arduino LCD Game
Adding a scoring system not only makes the game more challenging but also provides players with a quantitative measure of their skill or progress.
Category: Displays
Displays are electronic devices used for visual output, converting electrical signals into visual information that can be viewed by users. They come in various types including LCDs (Liquid Crystal Displays), LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes), OLEDs (Organic Light Emitting Diodes), and e-paper displays, each offering distinct advantages in terms of brightness, color accuracy, power consumption, and visibility. Displays are integral components in a wide range of applications, from small wearable devices and smartphones to large televisions and digital signage, enabling interaction through graphical interfaces.
Adding Obstacles to the Arduino LCD Game
This update introduces basic obstacle mechanics and increases the complexity of the game. You can further expand this by adding multiple obstacle types, varying speeds, or even scores based on how many obstacles are successfully avoided.
