Thanks for sharing this - also to Aaron, I have built it and this absolutely rocks. Such a great project, combining soldering, woodworking, lasercutting and programming. SW is running like a charm and the result looks awesome. 16x16 thumbs up!
Nice job! I did something similar to this. I made a drawing board that you could draw images and you could also play connect 4 on it. Other games I was thinking about adding is chess as well as tetris like this.
Can you please create a tutorial on how to use Aaron Liddiment libraries such as the LEDText library? There is no tutorial or straightforward explanation on how to use them on the Internet. Please do it!!
I don't have time to make videos at the moment, sorry! And you're correct, it was very difficult to work out how to use that library, even though its incredibly useful! I figured stuff out by reading the examples and lots of experimenting. Sorry I can't help you right now.
Change line 14 to one of the following HORIZONTAL_MATRIX, VERTICAL_MATRIX, HORIZONTAL_ZIGZAG_MATRIX, VERTICAL_ZIGZAG_MATRIX depending on how your matrix is wired.
Amazing Work Scott! Wondering if you have stumble upon this issue when creating the project? "Tetris/Tetris.ino: In function 'void loop()': Tetris:494:30: error: call of overloaded 'abs(long unsigned int)' is ambiguous if (abs(millis() - LastLoop) >= LoopDelayMS)": I tried already casting the abs result, but don't know what could be causing. Funny enough other ledSprites, LedFonts, examples work!
@@ScottMarley thanks, already solved the problem... I put every game (snake.h, pixel.h, Tetris.h, breakout.h) on is own folder! Thanks for the totorial, for great!
Hello. It´s a nice work. But i have a problem with compile the code in Arduino. It´s end in the error "LEDSprites.cpp:311:45: error: no matching function for call to 'max(int, uint8_t&)'".

I wouldn't know how to code a chess AI, but perhaps there are simple open source examples you could borrow from. Then you would need to write an interface to play it on the phone which might be tricky. Finally the code to show the game on the matrix would be fairly easy compared to the other two parts.
@@ScottMarley Voucher. I've been studying your thesis code and understanding its semantics. Thank you also for sharing the source of the application, it will help me to modify and create the interface. By the way, when I try to compile your project, it gives me an error on line 415, right at the beginning of the voit loop. if (abs(millis() - LastLoop) >= LoopDelayMS) exit status 1 call of overloaded 'abs(long unsigned int)' is ambiguous
Not that I'm aware of. If you are using an iPhone, you would do it through a web interface running on the ESP (unless you really want to write an iPhone app!). You'd have to do all of the processing in JavaScript on the webpage then send the resulting pixel data to the ESP as the full size image would be way too big for the ESPs RAM. Unless I'm missing something obvious! Not trivial.
Thank you a lot for sharing this. I have also build GameFrame with an ESP32 but i connected the data pin right to the top like zigzag. I dont know how to adapt the code for this. Can you help me?
@@j.palmstedt9640 No problem. I've got a new version of the code I will post a video about at some point where you can also play snake and breakout. Keep an eye out for that!

Thank you, that's very kind. Now I just have to get the time to make some more videos at some point!

I found it👍😊
For others:That works with HORIZONTAL_ZIGZAG_MATRIX and VERTICAL_ZIGZAG_MATRIX

Marcelo, do this: if(abs(long(millis()) - LastLoop >= LoopDelayMS)
Just need to specify the millis() a little more with the long part
Interesting !

If you have the data in going to the top left of the matrix and a zig-zag pattern, change line 13 to "#define MATRIX_TYPE HORIZONTAL_ZIGZAG_MATRIX".

It should do, but I haven't tried it. You will need to change the chipset define on line 11 to WS2811
