Dream Wac ah Mole game

(1/2) > >>

leoservers:
I have allways loved wack ah mole. My dream game would be insted of Moles comeing out there would be gombas and babombs and turtles and a few outher bad guys from the nes days. have it themed out compleatly for retro gameing and have a LED back screen that would have a game playing as you hit the bad guys the player would jump on them in the game or shoot them ect. And insted of using a dumb boring hammor I would make it Donkey Kong's Hammor.

After seeing you guys Make the Ski Ball games I looked into makeing one of these guys and well........ :badmood: its beyound me in the mechanics department, But maby you guys can give me some tips on makeing it posiable. I was thinking with a rasbery pi and a arduino that would cover the brains just not the moving parts.

Nephasth:
Your best bet would be to try to convert an existing Whac-a-mole. I've been on the lookout for a classic one for a couple years now, due to the nature of the game, they don't tend to have a high survival rate...

jmike:
Sounds like a cool idea. but I agree with Nephasth about looking for an older one.

What if you could make it all digital? Like have the images just light up and you hit them with the mallet? Almost like those DDR games but instead of stepping on them, you'll whack them.


Maybe you can use this for the brains. It's pretty cool, even has multiple features. Click on "User Guide" to see the different game modes.

maybe if some kind of software could be found like this flash game:

hook up a platform that you hit (like a DDR panel) to a keyboard encoder and a digital screen above it.
