more game ideas about picoprojects

[barthba]

another take:

game idea--
start with slow rotation
each successful lazer hit speeds up the servo
light 3 LEDs to represent 3 lives
each miss will take down a life (dramatic fade to black? - could be a pwm stretch goal)
button will "fire the laser"... but really on the backend it will check the photoresistor (kinda like duck hunt worked)

figure out a way to inform the user how many rounds they made it through when they lose their last life

if buzzers are in the plan then it could do a little hooray or sad buzzer upon a hit or miss

I love your "another take"... I think having it start slow and then pressing the button to "fire" the laser could be cool and then having a concept of "lives" indicated by lights could be cool...
And if we really wanted to, we could have the button turn the laser on. It would mean running the positive line of the laser to the pico and not just the power rail so we can use a GPIO pin to turn the laser on and off. If we did that, then the button press would turn the laser on for a short amount of time and also start the recording of light intensity on the photoresistor and after the laser went off record whether they lost a life or not.
